Fuerteventura
Canary Islands, Spain

The island's wave arena — powerful open-ocean swell breaking over rocky launches. Committing, rewarding, and strictly for experienced wave sailors.

The jewel of the south. A huge tidal lagoon gives beginners and freestylers flat, shallow water, while the open sea outside delivers constant wind for planing and foiling. Home of the René Egli centre and the PWA World Cup.
