    Climate Overview

    Climate Type: Subtropical desert

    Fuerteventura has a subtropical desert climate, similar to the Sahara Desert due to its proximity to Africa. The island is the oldest in the Canaries and the driest after Lanzarote. Constant trade winds make it cooler than its latitude suggests, with temperatures ranging from 17-28°C. The endless beaches and dunes define its landscape.
