You can find the current weather forecast for Fuerteventura above

Fuerteventura, together with its northern neighbour Lanzarote, is one of the easternmost islands of the Canary Islands. The Sahara lies some 300 kilometres further east, which is why Fuerteventura is frequently affected by hot air currents. Gran Canaria also borders it to the west. The weather and climate reflect this.

However, the sea, which remains cool at between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius all year round, and the trade winds serve to slightly temper the foehn winds blowing in from the desert. Temperatures therefore remain within a very pleasant range all year round – as is typical of the Canary Islands – even for Central Europeans. The implicit assumption that a mild winter automatically leads to a hot summer is therefore incorrect. On the contrary, the weather on Fuerteventura is very consistent and balanced throughout the year.

Puerto del Rosario, the capital of Fuerteventura, in the east of the island, has a minimum temperature of 13 degrees Celsius (January) and average maximum temperatures of 28 degrees Celsius (July) all year round. Sun-worshippers will certainly be in their element, as Fuerteventura averages only around 20 days of rain a year. This, combined with kilometres of clean beaches and a wide range of (water) sports on offer, makes Fuerteventura a wonderful holiday destination.

Tenerife Climate Table for Fuerteventura

As there are no mountains, the climate on Fuerteventura is not as varied as on the other Canary Islands. The climate table for Fuerteventura therefore applies from the narrow Jandía Peninsula in the south – home to Costa Calma and the popular, slightly secluded beach of Cofete – right up to Corralejo in the north of the island with its beautiful shifting sand dunes.
