Morro Velosa Viewpoint

Strategically located between the Betancuria Rural Natural Park and Santa Ines Valley, in Tegu Mountain of 669 meters, this viewpoint was designed by Cesar Manrique the most famous Lanzarote artist, and from this vantage point you get an unbeatable view of the north and center of Fuerteventura.

If you look north, you can see the coastal village of El Cotillo, or Tindaya Mountain, while if facing south east, will see the town of Antigua, or volcanoes near the village of Tiscamanita.

In this building, besides being able to have a coffee or snack to enjoy excellent views, you can also enjoy some of the temporary exhibitions organized by the Cabildo of Fuerteventura..

A few years ago, next to the viewpoint, you could see the "Shutter Mist", installed on the left of the lookout, and is part of a pilot of the Canary Islands for water by natural methods.
The mist catcher consists of a metallic structure where panels are installed plastic so that when they collide clouds, water is captured and taken to a gutter which is collected and subsequently stored.

Open from 10.00 to 18.00, Tuesday to Saturday.
