Playa Alzada beach, Fuerteventura. Our favourite beach in Corralejo
Playa Alzada beach, Corralejo. Fuerteventura
It is the least known of the beaches near the Corralejo dunes, making it a perfect destination if you are looking for a quiet beach.
Playa Alzada is wild, with white thin sand and with waters that look turquoise from afar and as transparent as you can imagine when you get in.
