A huge search was launched for the Brit after her relatives reportedly raised the alarm when she failed to return.A local council-run emergency services organisation then confirmed her body had been found on Sunday.
Fuerteventura Emergencias said in a statement: "The lifeless body of the English tourist last seen on June 7 has been located in the Corralejo Dunes Natural Park in the municipality of La Oliva.The vast sand dunes, the largest in the Canary Islands, is a preserved park area popular with tourists who flock to the pristine beaches.A post-mortem is set to take place to determine Anne's cause of death, although authorities are not reported to be treating it as suspicious at this stage.
The results will then be sent to a local investigating court, instead of being made immediately public as is normal in Spain. A British expat based in Fuerteventura who had been updating locals on the search for Anne shared the sad news in a Facebook post."Thank you to everyone who helped search and shared her son’s post."I know her son felt there was an incredible community on the island and it means so much to him."
