Laws Flying in Fuerteventura (Canary Islands)

[thefrisbee995]

I'm off to Fuerteventura next week and would like to use my Mavic... Anybody know where I can see the laws/ rules for flying there? I know it's part of Spain and they have pretty tight laws against drones but I don't know what the rules would be on an island off of the main land.

National parks are a no go.

The same rules applies! An as the previous post, national parks out of the question!

Was that actually legal though or was it just luck that you didn't get caught?

yes its a hard rule no flying in national parks, many empty and away from people, I think their worry is a quad may start a fire with the battery, yet the fire brigade use drones now, If you were asked to help out say a search and rescue, you couldn't .
Must be some parts there not national park although the best parts probably are.
I remember the southern tip is beautiful, looking up the west coast beaches and few people, well worth a visit, moonlike

I'll just have to make sure I'm sensible then and I should be fine. Thanks!
