Playa de Sotavento de Jandía
★ 4.8 (162 reviews)
Playa de Sotavento de Jandía stands as one of Fuerteventura's most spectacular natural treasures, a jewel of the Canary coastline stretching nearly 10 kilometers along the island's southeastern shore. This paradise actually comprises a succession of five connected beaches offering an ever-changing and fascinating landscape, especially when high tide creates a crystalline lagoon that leaves visitors and locals equally amazed.
What makes Sotavento truly unique is its dual personality: at high tide, a spectacular lagoon forms with calm, shallow waters perfect for families with children, where little ones can observe and feed fingerlings in a safe environment. On the other hand, its consistent wind conditions have turned it into an internationally recognized paradise for kitesurfing and windsurfing enthusiasts, with several specialized schools taking advantage of these ideal currents. The crystal-clear water, endless white sand, and that landscape no photo can truly capture make this beach an essential destination on your Fuerteventura visit.
