Great footage this Dave! Takes me right back! Looking at this and remembering back to when we first went in 1990… its changed so much. We still love it, holds a special place in our hearts!
I used to live in Corralejo! I was feeling nostalgic so was looking at Videos of it & came across yours! It really cheered me up - I know the silver man - he's Sebastian - also saw a friend. Can't wait to tell them they're on RUclips. I turned the volume right up to hear the waves - perfect :-) Also, you'll never believe it but I've just moved by Poppleton Road School. It's a bit different to where I was living - I'm fed up of the snow. MAY GO BACK!
I have to favourite this video. We got back a few weeks ago from Corralejo. You filmed many of the scenes I photographed and then had my camera stolen. Thanks for capturing all this!
Arrived 14h Dec for 2 weeks. Weather first week was cool and cardigan weather second week saw a bit more sun but it rained and was blowing a gale on 28 Dec.Last year on same date it was HOT.Lots of empty apartments in EL COTILLO . Corralejo was busier. Plenty of life if you want it. .Love the place. A friend is hoping to move there.and is staying till March lucky thing!! It5 is just 4hours away from the UK and in to brilliant sunshine. Usually!!!
My fav place of all time and I've been to all Spanish Islas, a car is a must, its sooo easy to drive there and impossible to get lost! I think only 4 or 5 sets of traffic lights on whole island, I drive it top to bottom everytime I go, it takes around 2.30 mins if you take it easy. Loads of beaches to visit, we're going back June 9th and cant wait, if anyone wants info on best places to visit and eating out please feel free to message me
@SuperAlfiedog Plenty of wind there - esp on the flag beach just outside the town. I think the name Fuerteventura comes from the word wind (sure I read it somewhere)
I am off to Teneriffe in about three weeks I exoect the prices there will have risen a lot also - Thanks for your comments - I am looking forward to going back to Corralejo within the year
Thanks - you are indeed correct getting around the island by car is great -We are going back in 3 weeks and will have a car but also when we have been to Corralejo have caught a bus to El Cotillo - a fabulous place. Thanks for your comment
Strangely enough I also stayed at the Oasis Dunas and Yes I enjoyed both Corralejo and the Oasis Dunas (so much so am going back to stay at the same hotel in November this year!)
Thanks for the nice comments MissAndDav - small world my grandkids are pupils at Poppleton Road School - and tell Sebastian and your friend I will video them again when I go to visit Corralejo in November :o) if they want me to :o)
@SuperAlfiedog We found a few good bars with live music - our favourite is the Rock Island Bar - do a google search they have a web cam showing the live music each night. We like live music and found plenty of them - Enough bars too rith live football and karaoke and bars just to sit and drink in! we have been twice and are going again in about 2 months so I think that sort of proves we find it a good place for a good time.
Have a great time (If you like live accoustic music try the Rock Island bar great atmosphere there - google it they have a live web cam so you can see the entertainment before you go)
Yeah im just back yesterday great place yep times is hitting the place hard . Spain aint very cheap anymore weather great . Spanish not freindly they tolerate tourists and thats it
i miss that place soo much.. hey did anyone see a homeless guy with some bottles using them as drums? i gave him 50 euros on my last day because he knew the bob the builder theme =p wwooooow fred olsen
