Places to visit:
The Azores archipelago is made up of nine islands, situated in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. They each have unique characteristics, stunning scenery and great cultural wealth. On Graciosa Island, don’t miss the excursion to Furna do Enxofre, where you can admire verdant scenery and a stone tunnel that leads to the Carapacho hot springs. When visiting Terceira Island, you can marvel at the green fields and natural beauty of Angra do Heroísmo, a must-drive route from the Serra do Cume to Algar do Carvão. Pico Island is known for offering one of the most challenging walks in the Azores, the ascent of Mount Pico at night-time until sunrise, with spectacular views of the surrounding peaks and islands.
When visiting São Miguel Island, the largest island in the Azores archipelago and known as the green island due to its verdant countryside, we suggest walking the trail on the western tip of the island. Here, you’ll visit one of the most famous lagoons of volcanic origin in the Azores, known as the ‘Sete Saias’ caldera, and marvel at beautiful views of this stunning scenery. Don’t miss the excursion from the Lagoa do Fogo (Lagoon of Fire) to the Ribeira Grande, located in the heart of the island.
