Corralejo Dunes Natural Park
Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo
About 24 square kilometers of white organic dunes running right down to the sea and meeting the bright Atlantic. It is the island’s most iconic landscape.
Corralejo Dunes Natural Park lies in the northeast of the island. The dunes are formed from shell and marine debris, giving them a rare white-gold color. They stretch to the coast, where the Grandes Playas (“great beaches”) have turquoise-green water, and you can see Lobos Island and Lanzarote in the distance. The FV-1 road cuts through the park, and you can pull over almost anywhere to walk into the dunes. The beaches are good for swimming and kitesurfing, and some areas are naturist beaches.
Entry is free, and it is about a 5-minute drive from Corralejo town. When the wind is strong, sand blows heavily, so protect yourself from the sun and keep your camera safe.
