Explore Lajares
Lajares is one of Fuerteventura’s most unique and creative villages — a place where surf culture, remote work, and Canarian tradition blend seamlessly. Located between Corralejo and El Cotillo, it sits against a dramatic volcanic backdrop, surrounded by hiking trails and panoramic views of the island’s north.
What was once a quiet farming community has transformed into a bohemian hub for surfers, artisans, and digital nomads. The weekly Saturday craft market is famous across the island, featuring handmade jewelry, ceramics, and local food. Cafés and co-working spots buzz with remote workers from all over Europe, while yoga studios and surf schools make it easy to balance productivity with relaxation.
Despite its growing popularity, Lajares still retains its laid-back, local charm — dirt roads, whitewashed houses, and friendly faces give it an authentic, small-village feel. It’s the perfect base for those who want a slower lifestyle, creative inspiration, and easy access to both the beaches of El Cotillo and the sand dunes of Corralejo.
