Situated near Punta de Jandía in the scenic south of Fuerteventura, Punta del Tigre offers a secluded surf spot amid natural beauty. Its rocky, volcanic seabed forms an exposed reef break with powerful, tubular waves. This challenging spot requires skill and experience due to strong currents, shallow waters, and rocky hazards.
Surfing conditions peak in winter and autumn, thanks to consistent groundswells from the north and northwest. Unlike many popular surf spots, Punta del Tigre rarely gets crowded. It offers a solitary surfing experience, perfect for wave riders who prefer solitude. Yet, this isolation poses its own challenges. Expect rugged terrain and be cautious around the rocks.
