Going on holiday to Fuerteventura or Lanzarote?
Want to visit the other island also for a day trip maybe?
The two islands are so close to each other that on clear days you can easily see the island on the other side.
If you want to go from Lanzarote to Fuerteventura or the other way around, then you have a total of 3 options. There are 3 ferry companies that offer transportation between the islands: Lineas Romero, Fred Olsen and Naviera Armas.
ALL FERRIES, no matter the company you buy from, leave/arrive in Playa Blanca (Lanzarote) and Corralejo (Fuerteventura).
All prices and schedules are correct at the time of writing this article - January 2020. Please check each company's website before deciding which one to book.
Every time we want to go from one island to another, we use the services of Lineas Romero.
It takes around an hour when the catamaran stops also at Lobos Island, but we are usually in no hurry.

Taking the ferry from Fuerteventura to Lanzarote is the only way to cross between the islands. It's a cheap and quick way of transportation and with Fred Olsen and Naviera Armas you can also bring your car.
REMEMBER to bring your passport or identity card. It is required to have an ID when you cross from one island to another.
Corralejo
If you're coming to Corralejo, then we advise you to walk through town, then try some of the local restaurants and bars in the Music Square, which offer a great view towards the island of Los Lobos.
If you want you can also take a taxi to see the dunes and Corralejo Grandes Playas, one of the best places to see in Fuerteventura.
Playa Blanca
Marina Rubicon in Playa Blanca is a nice place to take a stroll and twice weekly there's also a market organized here (similar to other markets in the Canaries).
