Morro Jable

Not quite a purpose-built resort as once a tiny fishing village stood here. Engulfed now in the hotels and apartment complexes that really form Morro Jable, it's the second largest of the tourist resorts, thanks to the famous beaches of Fuerteventura which are more spectacular in the south and especially Butihondo beach at this resort. A walk along the beach could go on for 20km. The lighthouse on the beach marks the southernmost point of the isnald. A promenade runs the length of the resort, lined with restaurants, bars, shops, commercial centers.

There's a harbour to the west and as well as port of call for the fisherman, (fishing is a very popular industry here) it's also port of call to ferry services to neighbouring islands.

A new road is currently being built from the airport to Morro Jable as the resort rapidly expands and new developements are underway along the coastline.
