What to See and Do in Morro Jable: Jandía Beach and Wild Nature

Here are the Morro Jable tours and excursions for getting around the southern tip of Fuerteventura, with the Canary Islands’ longest beach, the fishing port and the mountains of Jandía Natural Park.

Jandía Beach – The Canary Islands’ Longest Beach

One of the longest beaches in the Canaries, right below the town:

  • Jandía Beach with more than 14 kilometers of uninterrupted golden sand
  • Turquoise water for swimming, with moderate waves
  • Quiet areas with few people as you move east from the centre
  • Promenade with palm trees, restaurants and views of Jandía mountains

Traditional Fishing Port

Seafaring life in the south still revolves around the port:

  • Active fishing port where traditional local fleet boats moor
  • Fresh fish market in mornings with day’s catches
  • Fishermen’s restaurants with freshly caught Atlantic fish
  • Majorero atmosphere combining fishing tradition and tourism

Jandía Natural Park and Mountains

The Jandía massif closes off the town to the west:

  • Jandía Mountains reaching over 800 metres next to the sea
  • Hiking Pico de la Zarza, Fuerteventura’s highest point at 807 metres
  • Routes through ravines and valleys with Canarian endemic flora
  • 360-degree views of the Atlantic Ocean and the entire peninsula

Virgin Beaches of the Far South

The island’s most isolated beaches lie on this side:

  • Cofete Beach accessible by 4×4, one of the Canaries’ wildest
  • Puertito Beach with quiet fishing village atmosphere
  • Hidden coves on Jandía’s west coast with difficult access
  • Jeep safari tours discovering secret beaches and lunar landscapes

Water Sports and Marine Activities

The south has good conditions for getting on the water:

  • Diving at the south’s main dive sites in clear water
  • Boat excursions spotting dolphins, turtles and pilot whales
  • Deep-sea sport fishing with professional charters from the port
  • Paddle surf and kayaking in calm waters along the promenade

Seafood Gastronomy

The day’s catch is eaten right by the port:

  • Fish restaurants at the port with terraces facing the sea
  • Vieja, sama, grouper and wreckfish freshly caught prepared grilled or baked
  • Local seafood: limpets, sea snails and Atlantic clams
  • Traditional Canarian cuisine in family guachinches with fair prices

Excursions from Morro Jable

From Morro Jable, tours head across the Jandía peninsula and the south of the island:

  • 4×4 safari to Cofete crossing the mountains on dirt tracks
  • Excursions to Costa Calma and the beaches of Sotavento to the north
  • Tours to Betancuria crossing the whole island from the south to the mountainous centre
  • Quad routes through volcanic landscapes and Natural Park ravines of Jandía

Jandía’s long beach, the fishing life at the port, hiking across the massif or a 4×4 run out to Cofete: Morro Jable is the most remote and wild corner of Fuerteventura, at the southern tip of the island.

Frequently asked questions

At the southern tip of Fuerteventura, on the Jandía peninsula, about an hour and a half from the airport on the FV-2. It also has a port with ferries to Gran Canaria.

Only on a rough mountain track leaving from Morro Jable. Ordinary hire cars are not insured for it: go on a 4×4 safari or in a suitable vehicle.

More than 14 kilometres of unbroken sand, the longest in the Canaries. Walk away from the centre and you find stretches that are almost deserted.

Yes: the deep water off Jandía is the best area on the island for sightings, and almost every trip leaves from this port.

Four to five hours there and back, about 14 kilometres with 600 metres of ascent. Start early and carry at least two litres of water: there is no shade.

All year round. The south is the warmest and most sheltered part of the island, and the water stays swimmable in winter.
