About this place

Corralejo's dunes and lagoons suit small children perfectly at low tide, while the surf schools of the north coast give teenagers a proper challenge and a new identity. Winter sun is the trump card: mid-twenties in February, with whales and dolphins on the ferry crossing to Lanzarote for a change of scene.
