Experience the unforgettable beauty of Lagoa do Fogo, one of São Miguel’s most iconic natural wonders, where dramatic volcanic scenery meets untouched nature. Journey from Ponta Delgada along the south coast, passing green pastures and colorful flora, before ascending into the heart of the island. Along the way, discover the traditional artistry of the Vieira Ceramics Factory, where the famous Louça da Lagoa is still crafted by hand, preserving generations of local knowledge and culture.
Explore the heights of Lagoa do Fogo Volcano, a protected nature reserve since 1974, and take in sweeping views over Lagoa, Ponta Delgada, and Ribeira Grande. Continue toward the north coast with the option to visit Caldeira Velha Natural Park, surrounded by endemic vegetation and warm thermal pools. Finish the experience with a stroll through Ribeira Grande’s historic center and a stop at Santa Bárbara Beach, a striking black-sand coastline known worldwide for championship surfing conditions.
