Parashop

Right after security in T1, Parashop sits in the main departures shopping area at Fuerteventura Airport. It’s a small health and beauty shop, so think last‑minute toiletries and pharmacy‑style bits rather than a full supermarket. You walk past it on the standard route from security to the T1 gates, so no detour needed.

Parashop focuses on travel‑size shampoo, shower gel, deodorant, toothpaste and similar essentials, handy if your liquids bag got emptied at screening in T1. Expect airport mark‑ups versus a city pharmacy, but not the worst gouge on the island. Stock skews toward mainstream European brands rather than luxury labels, so it’s more about practicality than gifts.

The shop usually opens from the first wave of departures in T1 (around 06:00) and stays open through the evening flights, often until roughly 22:00, though hours mirror the day’s schedule. You pay in euros, and cards are widely accepted; contactless works fine for quick under‑€25 grabs. Staff are used to people rushing for a gate that starts boarding in under 20 minutes.

Best use of Parashop in T1: plug gaps. Think forgotten toothbrush before a 4‑hour flight, extra SPF for Fuerteventura’s sun, or small packs of tissues and wet wipes for the seat pocket. Don’t expect deep product ranges or niche items; if you need something specific, buy it in town before heading to the airport.

Tip: if you know you’ll need liquids under 100 ml, plan a 5‑minute stop at Parashop right after security in T1, before you get distracted by duty‑free and food courts closer to the gates.
