Yellow alert for coastal phenomena on Sunday and Monday

The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has extended a yellow warning for adverse coastal conditions on the island of Fuerteventura through Monday. The alert, already in force for Sunday, also includes a warning for strong winds.

What to Expect

• Waves exceeding four metres in height will continue to affect the island’s coasts.
• Strong winds are expected on Sunday and Monday, with a noticeable decrease on Tuesday.
• High tides will accompany the rough sea, driven by the new‑moon phase. The tide coefficient peaks at 13:30 on Sunday and 14:10 on Monday.

Recommended Precautions

Exercise extreme caution during the specified hours, especially in the western coastal settlements of Fuerteventura.

• Areas to avoid or be extra careful:

  • El Cotillo
  • Los Molinos
  • La Playa del Valle
  • Ajuy

• Swimming is strongly discouraged during the peak tide and wave periods.

Residents and visitors are urged to stay informed of the latest updates from AEMET and to follow local safety instructions.
