Description
Though we're indeed in Spain, we're about 1,600 kilometres from the plains of La Mancha , where the fictional Don Quixote tilted at windmills like this one. Fuerteventura is the second largest by area of the Canary Islands , a Spanish overseas holding since 1405, even though it's much closer to Morocco. Despite its size, Fuerteventura is home to less than 1% of the Canaries' population (most reside on Tenerife or Gran Canaria ), so breathing room is ample on the windy isle.
