What to expect

Experience the unique beauty of São Miguel Island, a blend of volcanic landscapes, historical charm, and tranquil coastal scenes.

Your adventure commences at Pico da Barrosa, one of the island’s loftiest points, offering sweeping views over central São Miguel. A short distance away, pause at the Miradouro da Lagoa do Fogo, one of the most emblematic viewpoints in the Azores. Marvel at the untouched splendour of Lagoa do Fogo, a crater lake nestled within a protected nature reserve. Following this, make your way to the city centre of Ribeira Grande, the cultural epicentre of São Miguel’s north coast. Meander through cobbled streets adorned with traditional architecture, explore local shops, and perhaps pause at a café to sample regional delicacies. The city is renowned for its delightful squares, historic churches, and lively local atmosphere.

End your day at Santa Bárbara Beach, one of the island’s most celebrated stretches of sand. With its imposing cliffs, volcanic black sand, and powerful Atlantic waves, it's a popular spot for surfers and beach enthusiasts alike. Whether you fancy a swim, a stroll along the shore, or simply unwinding to the rhythm of the waves, it’s the ideal way to relax after a day of discovery.
