Practical Tips for Visiting Fuerteventura with a Dog

Fuerteventura is a wonderful winter-sun escape with a dog, as long as you go in with eyes open: it is a big, dry, windy island where only a few beaches allow dogs and shade is scarce. Rent a car, base yourself for easy reach of the authorised beaches, and build days around early-morning and late-afternoon walks. Bring your dog's EU passport, plenty of water and sun sense, and the island's space and year-round warmth do the rest.
