Fuerteventura Shopping Tips, Shops and Supermarkets, Fuerteventura Tourist Information, travel guide ...

This site is provided "as is" - we don't accept any liability whatsoever. The information is just a starting point for research purposes.

If you are staying in the South (Jandia), there are many shops along the promenade mainly catering for tourists: electronics, fabrics, clothing, leather goods, luxury items, cigarettes and tobacco, perfumes, toys, souvenirs, alcohol, duty free (be sure of your limits), hairdressers, pharmacy/chemist, restaurants, bars, cafes, food and provisions. There are a few Netto and Spar Supermarkets that carry everyday essentials. 

If you want a wider choice in daily provisions, go to Hiperdino Hypermarket in Costa Calma a few miles away (more choice, better value if you are buying lots) - do all your shopping in one go if your resort is far away.

However, don't spend a lot of time comparing prices. You may save a few Euros but you'll waste a lot of precious time - time that is better spent on the beach or enjoying the various attractions or just relaxing from your sea view apartment.
