Also, if you happen to be on holiday in Corralejo at that time (or anywhere else on the island for that matter) it is worth it to come and see the amazing kites flying over the sand dunes, with the Lobos Island and the turquoise water in the backdrop.
In the last years the Kite Festival in Corralejo - Fuerteventura has attracted a lot of attention from the Spanish press and international as well, so participants gather from numerous countries to take part in this colourful event.
