Things To Do
Welcome to Azores!
We look forward to seeing everyone in Ponta Delgada, which is a small walkable city on the island of Sao Miguel. While we do love Ponta Delgada, we definitely recommend venturing out of town to experience the full magic of the island. We suggest renting a car during your stay which allows you access to other villages around the island- note that a small car is much easier to navigate through the tiny roads! There is NO UBER/LYFT, but there are taxis readily available in downtown Ponta Delgada and at the airport.
See below for some of our favorite things to do/places to see in Azores!
Sete Cidades
Sete Cidades, Azores 9555, Portugal
We stayed in an awesome little Airbnb right on the water here. It is a small village with only 3 restaurants, but it has some of the most scenic views on the island. Great for hikes! Highly recommend.
Ponta da Ferraria
Rua Ilha Sabrina, Ginetes, 9555, Portugal
Oceanfront natural hot-springs pool. The volcanos warm the water!
Ponta dos Mosteiros
Mosteiros, Azores, Portugal
Picturesque spot for sunsets. Very close to Sete Cidades.
Parque Terra Nostra
Largo Marquês da Praia e Monfort, Furnas, Açores 9675-061, Portugal
Beautiful park and botanical garden with thermal baths. The water is orange due to the high iron content in the water, so wear a bathing suit that you don't mind getting stained.. Tickets required!
Porto Formoso
Porto Formoso, Azores 9625, Portugal
Some of the most beautiful beaches and views on the island. It really is worth a drive up to the north coast!
Vila Franca do Campo
Vila Franca do Campo, Azores 9680, Portugal
Very cute village. Be sure to stop at Queijadas da Vila for the best queijadas on the island.
For all the days along the way
