As one of the wildest beaches in the Canaries, with the largest dimensions and least urban developments, it is hard to find the adjectives to Cofete beach justice. Located in the north of the Jandia peninsula in the south of Fuerteventura, Cofete is a visual feast of endless golden sand, wild seas and a wonderful sense of freedom. Its twelve kilometres, the scarcity of houses, lack of paved roads and the need for a 4x4 to get there says everything about it. The term 'virgin' was invented for this beach.

Nestled in the mountains of Mogán, in the south of Gran Canaria, this five-star hotel interprets luxury as the cleanliness of shapes and environments of empty spaces that, nevertheless, house more than 400 rooms, two wonderful pools, an ultramodern spa, and a concrete and glass structure that pays homage to minimalism.

On what is a totally safe route which brings us closer to, while remaining at a safe distance from the new volcano, this new circular trail allows small groups to explore, on foot, the new landscape that is the legacy left by the eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano. A hike of around 6 kilometres lasting a little over 2 hours which must be undertaken with authorised guides. Although this is an easy to moderate difficulty-level hike, we highly recommend that you come equipped with proper mountain walking footwear, suitable clothing, sunblock and water, and book your tour in advance by contacting the companies on La Palma that specialise in this kind of activity, or on the website set up for residents. As an alternative, boat trips leave the port of Tazacorte which enable one to view the new “fajanas”, or lava plains, from the sea and in total safety.

It is located within the Natural Park of the Chinijo Archipelago, between the fishing village of La Caleta de Famara and the base of the impressive cliffs of Famara. It can be seen in all its glory at low tide, when the water forms a thin film on the sand which reflects the sky and the cliffs like a gigantic mirror. And if low tide coincides with sunset, visitors can immortalize a picture postcard scene which is one of the most emblematic of the Canary Islands with the island of La Graciosa silhouetted on the horizon.
