Enjoy a farm-to-table lunch with Azorean specialties. Then, head to Lagoa do Fogo, a pristine volcanic lake nestled in rugged peaks, perfect for photos. Return to Ponta Delgada for a relaxing evening.
Enjoy a leisurely day to explore São Miguel at your pace. Hit the black-sand shores of Mosteiros Beach or the islet of Vila Franca do Campo for a swim, just a short drive away.
