The Canary Islands with Jane McDonald: Season 1, Episode 3

1 - 3: Fuerteventura

Jane arrives at her hotel on the east coast of Fuerteventura and then sets out on a boat trip to visit the small uninhabited island of Lobos. She meets locals Amelia and Sarah in the queue for the boat and they offer to show Jane round the island. They go for a swim, where they see grey mullet fish, before lunch at a paella hut.

Jane goes to an animal rescue ranch that also specialises in horse meditation, where she learns how to connect with the horses without speaking and the horse picks up on her calm energy.

Jane takes a guided tour with local Simon who takes her and other tourists to an aloe vera farm where they see the plants growing and then see and experience the healing properties of an aloe vera leaf. Their next stop is the large Morro Velosa statues that tower over the Betancuria National Park, then onto the famous sand dunes near Corralejo. Simon explains to Jane how the sand has been formed over thousands of years.

Jane books a yoga retreat but is surprised to discover that it's naturist yoga, she chats to the naked yogis and then has a dip with Carrie, who owns the retreat.

Finally, Jane tries Fuerteventura's famous Majorero goats cheese - and meets the goats.
