Videos from my travels as a senior solo traveller in the Canary Islands.
I am particularly fond of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote with Corralejo and Playa Blanca being my favourite locations respectively. I have selected my favourites based on many visits and adventures where I have had the opportunity to experience and investigate wonderful locations that suit me as senior solo traveller.
I normaly travel with no real agenda, as find this the best way to relax and chill, but invariably easily meet likeminded new friends and adventures along the way in my favourite places. My uploads are just an impression of my observations and experiences in the glorious Canary Islands which I hope encourage others to visit.

This video is stunning! Thank you.
Thank you ! More similar on my channel if you would like to view. plus some more Son Bou videos coming soon 👍
People walk very fast on corralejp😅
🤣🤣🤣
€4 is a nice price. But you know what’s even cheaper? Watching this video and seeing the sites for free. Thanks.
🤣thanks but not quite the same as actually being there and enjoying the laugh ! Toot Toot !👍
How did you book the royal apartment please? Can’t seem find this option on any booking sites? Thank you
@yjones6145 Unfortunately I think they have sold a lot off but try here: www.corralejobeach.com/en/hb-royal.html# 👍
Y Jones: Hope helps 😀
Thank you for replying Yes, I tried that site but it doesn't show the Royal apartments when you look. As you say they're prob owned by other parties now? Many thanks again. I'll keep looking 🤪
Thanks I am glad you enjoyed 👍 Am sure you will have a wonderful trip here. Good choice 👍🥰😎☀️☀️🏖️
❤❤❤thank you for sharing CJ!!goin over in march! after visiting all the canaries! corralejo is by far my favourite resort! very bohemian! right up my street 😊⛱️⛱️🌞
Looking busy, busy in Corralejo. Some people wearing t-shirts, others coats or jumpers. What's the weather like in the evening? Always so difficult to tell.
Yes although temperature in the evening is tolerable at 17/19 a slight breeze can make it feel a tad chilly.I still wear shorts but now also add a thin anorak to compensate however in an event like this one with loads of peeps I was a bit overheated!!!
Hi mate hope you are well everything is all good I am sunbathing on town beach atmo.
Ha! Was down there an hour ago ! Now just arrived at paradise bar Hoplaco for a couple of cevzas! 🍺🍺
@CJBlandford nice one I just made a KZread video of me swimming in sea
@@CJBlandford true
I be there tonight 11pm for cold play
Excellent video thanks, I’ve walked down all these road’s many times myself
Thanks 👍 It certainly is fun exploring those back roads when walking too !
Oh dear...as us locals call it .the famous " wally trolley "😅
🤣🤣
We did this lol,
It's brilliant isn't it ! 🤣
Remember most places.
Glad to hear. Thanks for watching 👍
Anyone spot the fractional repeat sequence in my editing ?
Sorry ! Vino ! 🤪
😊
lol well spotted Chris
How about a bit of commentary, old chap?
Seriously thinking about that matey now retired and also possibly proper vlogging mit the old face and all that! 😱😎
@@CJBlandford, I know you have a load of great stories from the Reds days…..
Hi Christiano, nice video.. a lot of nice sexy women 😊
Just love this island, going out there for a month at Christmas. I’m going to retire there too 😊
@markwillougby6436 A month at Xmas and retirement there sounds idyllic ! I'm back September for another 4 adventurous weeks with hopefully more vids to follow !👍👍
We love corralejo ❤
@chrisstephens194 I can't get enough of it ! Back in sept for another 4 weeks ! 👍
Best ai4line
Awesome Chris. One of our favourite places; my brother still lives there in Shanklin.
@mikeotley Many thanks, glad you enjoyed matey 👍
Yo! fantastic !goodbyye,friend~;)
Thank you friend. Was agreat adventure at home for a change instead of overseas !👍
Palma Nova, a very good choice, not too far from Palma, or the Airport, and my favourite place, and as I'm an "old git" it's flat, no hills , unlike up the road, Torra Nova!
Yes, this oldun agrees with you!! 👍🤣
My fave place, were there in November for my 50th, previously in 2019 for my birthday and due in August for two weeks. Will be retiring there.
Is indeed a wonderful location,.,.. especially to retire! 👍😀
@stuartallanphotographerand6190
Great video nice shots and well edited together. We are back in Corralejo in 4 weeks 😀
Thank you kindly for your comment. We will cross airways as I leave Corralejo for UK in 4weeks ! Enjoy your trip 👍
Brought back lovely memories. My sister and I were there for a week in march. We loved it. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!❤
Ich kann jedem nur warnen auf Fuerteventura Urlaub zu machen. Seit Tagen wird Fuerteventura mit Giften aus der Luft durch Chemtrails besprüht. Die Sonne ist total verdunkelt, es kommt kein Sonnenstrahl raus. Wer Wert auf seine Gesundheit legt, fliegt lieber wo anders hin. Bei dem Video hier war Fuerteventura noch in Ordnung, das ist vorbei.
Calima ist eine Sandstaubwolke aus der Sahara, die normalerweise 1/2/3 Tage anhält ?
Nice, i do like that southerly approach but the northern one is spectacular coming in over the volcanoes....Roll on 25th April ✈🏖
Thanks. I agree the other approach is somewhat more interesting. Have a great time in April 👍
Just come back
Hope you had a great time 👍
@@CJBlandford best time evef
Can you recommend nice restaurant for seafood please
Lots of excellent fish restaurants around town front to choose from ! Try Domenoteca, Fogalera, La Playita and Vista Lobos 👍
My favourite place on the island
Wish had found it sooner ! Wonderful place indeed 👍
another enjoyable video share Chris. Thankyou
My pleasure sharing memories of my trips and other random stuff on my little channel ! Back in mid April '23 Fuerte/Lanz for a month! Hope to capture more from my wanderings if helps others with their perceptions and plans for visits to the splendid Canarias ! Not sure if you have seen this Lanz trip across the Island to Famara courtesy of my dear friend Alsion (during that ferry day visit !) but well worth a visit ! 👍 kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJyD0phuYKW-d9I.html
nice trip over and video watch Chris. Im gonna nip across when im in Coralejo in January. Can see you took the early ferry 8.30 roughly what time is last return ferry please ? would like to make the trip worthwhile. cheers graham
Thanks @Graham Broome . I took the 17.00 express ferry back to Corralejo which gave me adequate time to visit and travel the Island with my friend in Lanz and get back in time to freshen up for another most excellent evening in Fuerte ! kzread.info/dash/bejne/a6Wbp9dwk9SZk84.html
Thanks for sharing. first visit to Corralejo early Jan 23. Looking forward to winter sun and chill time.
Am sure you will like the vibe and return many times ! Enjoy !👍
@@CJBlandford Thanks. Been to GC Ten and Lanz often but never Fuert as windiness put me off, Decided its time to set my sails there so to speak
@@grahambroome8781 Equally a regular visitor to Lanz. Personally have not found wind excessive in Corralejo on my many visits. Also of course you can always pop over to Playa Blanca from Corralejo on the ferry which is covenient for a day out ! 👍 kzread.info/dash/bejne/iIiYzLVmhrKtlrw.html
@@CJBlandford nice to hear the wind is not a put off. Will deffo take the ferry over to Lanz one day during 2 week trip. .enjoy your next trip too
We are staying at that The Corralejo beach next September can’t wait
Great choice @ Frosty Glass! So central for everything! Enjoy ! Check this one out if helps ..... kzread.info/dash/bejne/hZygl6N9ipjSprw.html
Best location to be . Beside the sea, town and not far from music Square
Each to their own I guess. I've always thought this is the second worst part of the island - the area around the airport & Caleta de Fuste being the worst.
@@ngc-fo5te Each to their own indeed! Many wonderful locations in Fuerte but I just enjoy the vibe and music in Corralejo which I also find a good central point for travelling the Island 👍
@@CJBlandford Fair enough but it's not exactly central - it's at the NE tip - Antigua is central.
I am a solo traveller too and when I travel I only go to Playa Blanca because I love it so much. Thanks for this lovely video.
Thanks for your comment. Yes , vey much enjoy my visits to Playa Blanca as well . Keep safe fellow solo traveller !
Nice video!
Thank you !
💥 քʀօʍօֆʍ
NOT ! solo traveller !
I love this little island and Playa Blanca is my favourite part.
Couldn't agree more regarding Playa Blanca ! Perfect mix of activities/facilities/relaxation and still has that 'spanish' feel as not quite as commercialised as PDC
I love the wee cafe tropical on this lane. They do a great Scottish breakfast.
Gracias un 😘 desde Barcelona ❤️
Saludos a Barcelona ! Gracias a ver

Too short!!. We need longer clips.
Hi Derek, there are longer Playa Blanca videos on my channel. Please have a look and hope you enjoy .kzread.info/dash/bejne/a2tpz9WDaZfLkqQ.html
