What is the weather like in Fuerteventura throughout the year?
The climate in the Canary Islands is influenced by the trade wind belt, a factor that directly affects the propensity for flat formations on the island of Fuerteventura. The scarcity of mountains on the island promotes the passage of trade wind currents and low rainfall during the four seasons.

Thanks to this climatic factor, Fuerteventura enjoys a warm temperature with fresh air throughout the year. For this reason, many tourists and residents consider the island as one of the best destinations for water activities such as windsurfing. However, the best months for windsurfing and kitesurfing, according to experts, are May and August, when the breeze and waves are much more favourable.
