Sotavento, Shingle and nude beach in Fuerteventura, Spain

The Sotavento Beach stretches along 200 meters of coastline, featuring a combination of olive sand and natural shingle formations at 34 meters wide.

The beach has established itself as a significant water sports destination since the 1980s, hosting multiple international windsurfing and kitesurfing competitions throughout the years.

The beach represents the local approach to natural spaces, where naturist and non-naturist visitors share the shore in accordance with Spanish coastal traditions.

Visitors can access dedicated parking areas near the beach entrances, with water sports equipment rentals and instruction services available throughout the season.

During low tide, the beach transforms to reveal extensive sandbanks that form a three-kilometer lagoon with shallow waters suitable for various activities.
