Holidays for those with mobility and other disabilities in Fuerteventura.

Fuerteventura is a better holiday venue for those with Mobility problems than the other Canary Islands that I have visited. The reason for this is that the holiday resorts of Corralejo, Caleta, Costa Calma and Morro Jable are situated on an area of coastline which is relatively flat, where as some of the resorts on other islands tend to have an extremely steep climb up to the hotels. Fuerteventura's mountains tend to be located in the middle of the island.

Complying with the Disability Discrimination Act

Since the Disability Discrimination Act of 2004 came into force any amenity that has been built has had to comply with the law and all of the resorts have seen a lot of development since that time. Lots of the shops and bars are located together making access easiy for those with limited walking, and there are also several big shopping centres that are also disability friendly.

Mobility Hire

Another thing that makes Fuerteventua disability friendly, is that if you have a mobility problem you can take advantage of the way things have developed, and explore the resorts more fully by hiring one of the latest models of mobility scooter from a company such as Miraflor Mobility who can deliver items to suit your mobility needs to the main resorts of Corralejo, Caleta, Costa Calma and Jandia or any other location on Fuerteventura.
