Fuerteventura has a calendar full of celebrations rooted in tradition, joy, and popular culture. Throughout the year, the island hosts unique events that reflect Canarian identity and offer the perfect opportunity to experience its most authentic essence. Among the highlights are the Tanquito Pilgrimage in Tuineje, the Puerto del Rosario Carnival, and the Festival of the Virgen del Carmen.

Tanquito Pilgrimage in Tuineje: Canarian tradition
The Tanquito Pilgrimage is one of Fuerteventura’s most traditional celebrations. Locals and visitors dress in typical Canarian clothing to walk through the streets accompanied by folk music, dancing, and offerings. It is a festivity that connects with the island’s agricultural and religious roots, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
After enjoying this experience, staying at BLUESEA Jandía Luz in the south of the island is an excellent option to rest and continue exploring Fuerteventura’s most authentic side.

Puerto del Rosario Carnival: colour and fun
The Carnival of Puerto del Rosario, the island’s capital, is one of the most anticipated events of the year. Dance troupes, satirical groups, parades, and concerts fill the streets with music and colour, creating a festive atmosphere that captivates everyone who visits. It is the ideal celebration for those wanting to enjoy Canarian joy at its fullest.
Those who prefer to stay in the north and enjoy a livelier environment will find BLUESEA Aloe Corralejo the perfect choice, combining relaxation with easy access to the capital and other points of interest.

Festival of the Virgen del Carmen: devotion of the sea
The Festival of the Virgen del Carmen is the most important celebration for the island’s seafaring communities. In coastal towns such as Corralejo, Morro Jable, and El Cotillo, the statue of the Virgin is taken out to sea in a maritime procession of decorated boats, accompanied by music and festivities on land. It is an emotional tribute that reflects Fuerteventura’s deep connection with the ocean.
After a day of celebrations by the sea, BLUESEA Aloe Corralejo in the north is an ideal place to relax and be close to this cherished maritime tradition.
