City advice
Getting around
It is best to have a rental car.
In Fuerteventura there is a public bus service, but it is not the best way to get to know the Island. The best thing is to rent a vehicle with which you can move around according to your own concerns.
What to pack
Bring a flip flop.
Do not forget to take sunglasses, sunscreen and a cap, especially in summer. In winter you have to bring a little coat for some moments or part of the Island that you want to visit.
