It covers an area of 845 sq km , making it the fourth-largest of the islands in the archipelago.
Fuerteventura Island, the second largest of the Canaries, lies southwest of Lanzarote, across the Bocaina Strait.

Fuerteventura is the oldest island in the Canary Archipelago, having risen between 12 and 20 million years ago owing largely to volcanic activity.
