The AZORES PARADISE (2/9)
Yes, we only visited 2 out of 9 volcanic islands from the Azores Archipelago, but it was enough to conclude that we are, in fact, in presence of one of the most beautiful places on planet Earth.
Unspoiled nature, beautiful hiking trails, incredible lagoons, breath-taking caves, cute little villages, natural swimming-pools, hot spring pools… you name it. Azores have it all.
Three full days in Terceira and four full days in São Miguel, were almost enough to capture all the essence of these two amazing islands. But we never rested, except for the time spent in the hot spring or natural pools and in the “Ilhéu da Vila”.
Here is a recommendation of what you should not miss if you go to Azores:
. Terceira: Algar do Carvão / Furnas de Enxofre / Hiking Trails: Baías Agualva; Monte Brasil and Mistérios Negros / Unesco Heritage Angra do Heroísmo
. São Miguel: Lagoa do Fogo, Lagoa das Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Congro / Caldeira Velha Hot Water Cascate and Poça da Dona Beija / Ilhéu da Vila / Hiking Trails: Faial da Terra, Salto do Prego; Vista do Rei, Sete Cidades and Lagoa do Fogo / Furnas / Gorreana Tea Plantation / Whale Watching.
The pictures do not pay credit to the beautiful Islands of Azores, but they might just invite to visit this beautiful archipelago.
Before heading to Azores we spent a couple of hours in Lisbon (first four pictures).
