Influence of the trade winds in Fuerteventura<\/h2>\n\n

The trade winds are constant air currents that affect the Canary Islands, especially Fuerteventura and Lanzarote. Their presence is due to the geographical location of the archipelago and the influence of the Azores anticyclone. These winds tend to be more intense during the summer months, providing ideal conditions for water sports such as windsurfing and kitesurfing.<\/p>\n\n
