Morro Jable

Morro Jable is a coastal settlement on the southern tip of Fuerteventura featuring a long stretch of pale yellow sand and transparent waters. Modern hotels and resorts rise behind the shoreline, dominating the skyline along the beach.

The settlement began in the late 1800s as a small fishing village hugging the coastline. Growth accelerated in the mid-20th century when tourism development transformed the area into a major destination.

The old town quarter shows signs of its fishing roots through the boats moored along the shore and the way local life remains tied to the sea. This maritime connection continues to shape daily routines in the settlement.

The beach offers changing rooms, showers, and specially equipped areas for visitors with mobility needs, along with lifeguards during swimming season. Parking is abundant and the pathways to the sand are well-maintained and easy to navigate.

The settlement sits at the southern tip of the island with access to quieter beach sections beyond the main tourist zone. Many visitors do not realize they can explore the wilder coastal areas of the Jandía peninsula from this location.
