About the beach

La Oliva · Fuerteventura

Playa de Majanicho retains the feel of a small landing spot, with just a few houses, anchored boats, and a sand-and-pebble shore within the bay. Surfers frequent the waters further out, while the cove itself reflects the village's deep connection to fishing. It is a great stop to include when exploring the north of the island—a place to pause and admire the coastline. The rocky seabed requires caution, even when the water inside the bay appears calm.
