Lobos Island Tours and Tickets

The attractions of Lobos Island are low-key yet lovely, as you’d expect for a small island. You can check out the Punta Martiño lighthouse on the island’s northern tip, learn information about the island at the visitor center, bask on the crescent beach of La Concha, and hike Caldera Mountain.

You should bring an island permit when visiting Lobos Island. Most day trip operators provide them, or you can buy them at Corralejo. A hat and umbrella for shade is essential for the beach, and hiking shoes are important for hikers, as the trails are sandy and stony.

Yes, Lobos Island is suitable for families, but be aware that basic tourist amenities do not exist. Kids typically like the boat ride and opportunity to spot dolphins. Older kids and teens often enjoy exploring Lobos by bike. You can rent bikes in Corralejo and take them on the ferry.

Yes, there’s one small restaurant on the island; make a reservation immediately when you arrive in peak season. With a “beach bar” vibe, the place usually serves up light lunches and seafood. You also can bring a picnic to eat on the beach, as long as you take away your trash.

No, there aren’t guided tours of Lobos Island itself. The island is small, wild, and uninhabited. However, there are plenty of guided (or at least skippered) cruises from Fuerteventura that offer tips on the flora and fauna, pleasant places to lay down your towel, and where to snorkel.

Yes, the entrance fee to visit Lobos is the island permit, which can be bought in advance from Corralejo. Some tour operators include the permit with day trip excursions or cruises, saving you the hassle of filling in forms at the pier.
