Trip to Fuerteventura

On semana santa I went to one of my favourites canarian island, Fuerteventura. I very like this island because is one of the most uncivilzed island, and the nature there is hardly preserved, ans that's why you can see some volcanoes in their natural state. Although the island is very steep and peeled, it has it's own beauty.

We went to the lagoon in south part of the island, where you can do kitesurfing without the risk of be dragged by the atlantic ocean currents. However, we arrived ther too late, and when the tide os the ocean lowers, the lagoon lowers too and then ther'es insuficient water for dooing water sports there, but my father that knows how to kitesurf more than me, he went to the normal becah and kitesrfued quite good. Me and my mother took a bath, and the water was turqoise, really.

The island that you can see in the photo is ' La isla the los Lobos' or ' The sea wolf island'. It's a very little island that you can visit by going there in a shifting boat trip. This island has no building and it's very very natural, and you can walk from the dock to the other part of the island, enjoyng the view adn you can go up to that bigger mountain, where you can see Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.

The island that you can see behing the wolf island one is Lanzarote, and you can get a ship trip to Lanzarote with 40 minutes of traveling.

We went to Lanzarote with a ship, and then we went to Timanfaya, a volcano park where you can see asleep volcanoes and you can feel the heat that the little activity some have from their last eruption on the last 100 years.

The island you can see in the photo is Fuerteventura.

In the park of timanfaya we were in a bus and carried through the whole park and we listened to a documental that explained the history of the place. Also, the landscape is very black and rough because of the lava that solidified from the last eruption.

In this video you can see what happens if you throw water into a hole that ends up in a hotspot of the volcano:

Also, the restaurants ther profit the heat that the volcano providddes and use it to cook food, so they can make barbacues. We went to that restaurant and I ate rabbit cooked with the heat from the volcano, it was quite special and funny at the same moment.

I spent very good moments in this trip on Fuerteventura, and I hope to go again in the futere.
