Spanish Apartment Rentals in Fuerteventura for Winter Sun Holidays!
Spanish apartment rentals in Fuerteventura are ideal for winter sun holidays in the Canary Islands. With average winter temperatures on Fuerteventura between October and March ranging between 18 and 20°C and sunshine hours ranging between six and eight, it is like having wall-to-wall summers. Not surprisingly with these high winter temperatures on the Canaries, the winter holiday period on Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma and Fuerteventura in particular, is as popular as the summer season, with many choosing holiday villas in the Canary Islands for their Christmas holidays.
Fuerteventura's weather is not quite constant throughout the year but it can be simply summed up as sunny - and windy. The summers are dry, sunny - and windy. It's the regular wind that keeps holidaymakers who book their holiday villas in the Canary Islands relatively cool and is a magnet to windsurfers, surfers, kite flyers and sunbathers alike. Fuerteventura is very appealing for those who want holiday accommodation in Spain in the winter as it is still very warm and while there are cloudy days and occasional rain it is still warm and sunbathing is definitely the order of the day if you’ve booked Spanish apartment rentals in Fuerteventura.
One of the most traditional of Canarian foods is fish and for those holidaymakers who have booked self-catering Spanish apartment rentals in Fuerteventura it is an ideal opportunity to try some of the local fish dishes. While the cuisine of the Canary Islands is much affected and, to a certain degree, driven by tourism, there are foods that stand out as being typically Canarian. If you book your holiday accommodation Spain in Fuerteventura and decide to eat out you will almost certainly come across spicy Mojo sauce and Canarian potatoes. However one of the oldest recipes handed down from the Guanches, used by Canarians, is Gofio. This is a highly versatile product which can be added to soups, stews, desserts, ice cream, sauces etc with each family having their own particular recipe.
As well as enjoying the food, the main reason for booking holiday villas in the Canary Islands and in particular Spanish apartment rentals in Fuerteventura is to get away from the cold, dark, dank winter nights of northern Europe and have Christmas day on the abundant sunny beaches to be found in Fuerteventura.

But you'll find many excellent restaurants, late night music bars, a few clubs and traditional fiestas to keep you entertained until the small hours.
