Fuerteventura, Canary Islands

The beach of Cofete is not a beach for bathing. It has something mysterious about it. Deserted, lonely, abandoned, in the background are the up to 800 m high mountains of Jandia on which the clouds hang. There is always a strong breeze, the waves are very high. The beach seems breathtakingly eerie, yet beautiful! You should not swim here because of the high waves and the strong current. There are no tourists or locals on the beach, which is about 2-3 km long, and the beach is also absolutely unsuitable for children. If you visit Fuerteventura, you should take a day and see this untouched nature. There is nothing else to see here, except maybe the mysterious "Villa Winter".
