I found this activity on the internet and sent a WhatsApp to see if they had a trip available during our week in Corralejo. They were very personable and found a 3 hour slot for my son and I. We left the harbor around 10 and we were back by just after 1pm. It was truly an authentic experience- the skipper is born and raised on Fuerteventura and I believe he lives on the boat. My son got to steer the boat, which he loved. After sailing over to Lobos island (catching a fish along the way) we stopped in a bay for some snorkeling and then ate the fresh fish which they had prepared while we were snorkeling. Then we had a fast trip back to Corralejo with the wind and ocean swells behind us. Absolutely fantastic and the highlight of the vacation for my son. Definitely go with these guys vs. some big commercial operator.

The COAST 2 COAST FUERTEVENTURA NORTH TOUR is the best way to discover the wonderful central-northern area of the island through a private excursion with an 8-passenger minivan.

We will take a peaceful walk on one of the most fascinating and perfectly shaped volcanoes: Calderon Hondo. We will visit the typical surfers / hippies village of Lajares where time seems to have stopped in a not too distant past. We will continue to the white sandy beaches in El Cotillo to continue the tour among the majestic cliffs of Piedra Playa. Last stop in a company of Aloe vera, the famous plant of multiple benefits. It is advisable to wear comfortable shoes, for the stops at the beach bring the necessary for the beach. In case of wind it is preferable to have a sweatshirt with you. Also, smile and happiness :)

Excellent host, Max, was very friendly and knowledgable, Lots of interesting information and history of the island. Beautiful views and lots of opportunities for photos. Small group allows time fore more interaction with the host and Max suggested a good restaurant where we shared lunch. We wore masks on the minibus and Max provided hand sanitiser, we felt completely relaxed and safe throughout. Will take the North tour on our next visit to Fuerteventura. Thanks Max.

We love going on Catamaran's when on holidays and this one is in the top 5 for sure. Nico was our skipper and he was full to the brim of great local information. Angle was the captain who ensured a great sail fun and safe. They provided a great vegan salad for food and non stop drinks! We went snorkelling and stand up paddle boarding, they also had kayaks. This trip was one of the highlights of our holiday and when we go back to Fuerteventura we will be going back on this trip for sure. Thanks guys loved it from beginning to end! (even if we got rained on lol)
