Outing Highlights
Faro de la Entallada and Art Africa Ancestral Light
Perched on a 200‑metre cliff, the Faro de la Entallada hosts the Art Africa Ancestral Light exhibition — a collection of 374 works from the private Guillermo Martínez Castro collection displayed across ground and upper floors. Entrance to the exhibition is free.
Ajuy’s black beach and caves
The tour stops at the fishing village of Ajuy on Fuerteventura’s western coast to visit its black beach and coastal caves, including a short trek to a cave with time to explore.
Sotavento and high island panoramas
A morning transfer takes the group to an El Salmo viewpoint overlooking Playa Sotavento, and later to a high viewpoint roughly 600 metres above sea level where, in good visibility, Lanzarote can be seen.
What the day feels like
What the half‑day feels like
The rhythm is brisk and scenic: hotel pickup in the morning, then a minibus circuit that reaches viewpoints and narrow roads inaccessible to standard coaches, with stops for short walks at Ajuy’s cave and time to view Betancuria and the cliffside lighthouse before returning to hotels around lunch.
