Fuerteventura for me has always been a special place. Since the age of 10 it has been a quick and easy winter retreat for my family and friends.
the waves never seem to fail us. without a doubt i woulds say its in my top 3 surf destinations.
only a four hour flight south on the same longitude and you arrive on this baron, moon like, volcanic landscape. named the canaries.
- lobos -
The chart looked amazing we booked 4 days before flying. from day 1 the surf was relentless
we surfed this wave 5 days in a row sometimes 3 sessions a day. it was unbelievable, every time we rocked up to see consistent perfection, the excitement would take over the tiredness.
every night we would eat like kings and watch the constant flood of tourism flow through the streets with a scoop of ice cream. I find it weird that most of these people look over at lobos not knowing what goes on over there, on that flicker of white water, that rolls smoothly down the mountain side.
