Turn Your Summer Yoga Retreat in Fuerteventura into an Adventure of A Lifetime

While your yoga retreat in Fuerteventura is the heart of summer bliss, the island itself has so much to be discovered too! It just so happens that July and August are magical months with some magical gems for those looking for adventure beyond the mat.

Whales, Dolphins and Day dreams:

Set sail on the turquoise ocean in search of whales, and dolphins. Seeing dolphins in their natural setting is a close to spiritual experience and with the backdrop of the island landscape, can be a breathtaking experience for nature lovers and ocean adventurers alike.
Our favourite bonus is to look out for the amazing flying fish that might just fly right alongside your boat.
Explore Volcanic Landscapes & Hidden Trails
The island’s dramatic volcanic terrain makes for epic hikes and day trips. Discover scenic trails, rugged valleys, and panoramic views that stretch from coast to coast. The vistas here are as grounding as any meditation and you can find a new perspective on this beautiful island. There are a few easy to reach walks close to the retreat, but we can also connect you with a local guide, who will take you to lesser walked trails and beautiful secret corners.

Float Away

Discover some of the many local beaches, or calm turquoise lagoons, and hidden rock pool gems. Protected from the currents or waves. Simply let your troubles float away. You can find these hidden gems both on the east and west coasts, a short drive from the retreat. We’re not gonna give the exact locations away here, but our team will definitely point you in the right direction for a secret discovery.

Step Back in Time in Betancuria

Take a stroll through Betancuria, Fuerteventura’s ancient capital nestled in the heart of the island. This charming historic town invites us to step back in time and welcome slower mornings, perfect for exploring cobbled streets, small local cafés and artisan shops. Throughout July and August you can discover traditional celebrations and community fiestas that bring historic island magic to life.

Our favourite thing to discover here are the many old time photographs that still hang on the walls of the cafes and bars. They show sepia memories of a Canarian time gone by, and show how very little the small village has changed.

Feel the Beat at Summer Festivals

Summertime on Fuerteventura is alive with music and celebration. The Lagoons beach in Cotillo hosts a World Music & Reggae festival, so you can find a glorious mix of beach vibes and vibrant beats so you can dance barefoot on the sand.

The Caleta Sound Fest, in August, is a dance event, with DJs and an uplifting energy to dance under the stars.

Sail Away… 

Summer brings world-class windsurfing and wingfoil competitions to Playa de Sotavento, where the world’s elite mingle with the crowds. Expect high speed races and colourful sails and kites in the ocean, whilst activities, music and a vibrant, festive beach scene combine entertainment and a social energy for spectators.

Local Fiestas & Cultural Celebrations

July and August are full of traditional fiestas across the island — from Maritime processions honoring the Virgen del Carmen to lively pop-up village parties with local cuisine, music and dancing — giving visitors a real taste of island culture. 

Caleta de Fuste even hosts a summertime Carnival Celebration, bringing bright costumes and salsa drum bands, that will make it near impossible to not want to move your hips and join in!

Celestial beauty with Stars By Night

Crystal Clear Celestial Scenery

Fuerteventura is one of the world’s best locations for star gazing. The near to zero light pollution means vast, star-filled skies.  August brings the Perseids meteor shower, known locally as the “Tears of Saint Lawrence”, lighting up the night sky from mid-July through late August. Why not join Stars By Night, A local Star-gazing guided tour, and discover some of the most incredible celestial scenes. We can arrange a special excursion, or why not make a star gazing night of your own? Our retreat is nestled in one of the island’s most tranquil villages, far from the light pollution of the towns. Roll out a blanket on our out door yoga deck and watch the stars fill the clear and beautiful heavens.
