La Pared Fuerteventura Spain

La Pared Fuerteventura Spain

La Pared in Fuerteventura Spain is incredible, I arrived here shortly before sunset and it was quite incredible, there were people sitting on the rocks around the beach surrounded by this views and beach fires waiting for the sun to set. Once the sun started setting the entire place went silent, it was incredible.

This place is also very popular among the surfers, in fact right after I shot this a surfer went in to surf into the night (I will post a photo soon)

Fuerteventura Sunset

My goal was to go shoot the sunset from Cofete which is in the other side of the island, but when I got there the sunset was hiding behind the mountains and I could not see a thing. As soon as I realized that I could potentially miss the sunset I turned around and headed to the Jandia Salt Marsh and Lighthouse, as soon as I got to the top of the mountain the sun appeared and I had a really big smile on my face, I mean look at this incredible sunset!!!

As I headed towards the sunset I stopped from time to time to take a shot, this was my last stop before the sunset hid behind the sea. I really like the windmill surrounded by the ocean mist.

If you are ever in Fuerteventura, make sure you make the drive, its well worth it, its a long lonely drive on a dirt road but it has incredible views and its super relaxing. I think the sunset speaks for itself. Bring some snacks for the road and make sure you fill up your gas tank before hitting the dirt road.
