There are old towns further inland, great for a day trip away from the beach. Antigua is one of the oldest towns and a great place to wander around as well as being home to Centro de Artesania Molino de Antigua in a former farmhouse with a windmill, a goat cheese museum, a cactus garden, a cafe and a craft shop. There are hotels in Antigua such as the rustic H. R. Era De La Corte, which would make a good base for exploring the local area and hiking the Valle de la Cueva trail through the farmland and dark basalt landscape.

There are some family-friendly beaches in the north of the island. El Cotillo is small and laid-back with some sheltered lagoons that are good for children. There are also sandy beaches that are open to the big Atlantic waves and so are popular with surfers. Coral Cotillo Beach Hotel is less than 0.5 km (0.3 miles) from the beach and is known for being family friendly.

There are several all-inclusive hotels in Fuerteventura, including Club Paraiso Playa and Jandia Princess in quiet, peaceful Esquinzo, with its long empty beaches and cool sea breezes. There are adults-only all-inclusive hotels as well, such as in Fantasia Suites in the south of Fuerteventura, near Tarajalejo; the beaches here are mainly black sand and pebbles and popular with locals, while Tarajalejo itself is a relatively unspoiled fishing village but still developed enough to offer surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, snorkelling and sailing. On land, visitors can go cycling, hiking and pony-trekking.
