You'll feed wild squirrels by hand on a volcano rim overlooking the ocean.

Ride a quad bike through Corralejo Natural Park on Fuerteventura, stopping at two extinct volcanoes and a coastal beach while meeting squirrels that approach for snacks you offer yourself. The tour runs about two hours with a live guide, helmet included, and pickup arranged. A B-class driver's license is required to operate the quad.

The Experience

What makes this different from a standard park ride is the two volcano stops built into the route. The first is a short, easy walk; the second, Calderón Hondo, sits about ten minutes on foot from where you park the quad. Between them you're moving through the Corralejo Natural Park landscape—extinct volcanic cones rising around you, the ocean visible for most of the ride. The dirt road that runs along the waterfront toward Pop Corn Beach is the stretch most people remember; it's the kind of coastal track that feels remote even though you're on an island with towns nearby.

The squirrels are real and they do approach. You carry snacks to offer them yourself, which is the moment most riders pull out their phones. It's not a staged encounter—the animals are wild—but they're habituated enough to the route that they show up. The ocean stays in view throughout, and the landscape has that volcanic, almost Martian quality the operator mentions: dark rock, sparse vegetation, and the scale of the terrain changes how the light hits it as you move.

You operate the quad the whole time; this isn't a passenger experience. The driver needs a valid B-class license. Two people can ride on one quad if you prefer, with one person driving and one as passenger. The helmet is included. A guide leads the group and handles the stops, timing and route. The whole outing runs about two hours, and pickup from your hotel or a meeting point is arranged when you book.
