Caldeira das Sete Cidades
Located about 17 km northwest of Ponta Delgada, one of São Miguel's most breathtaking natural attractions awaits.

These two stunning lakes are separated by only a narrow bridge, creating a captivating and serene landscape.
Lagoa do Fogo
Lagoa do Fogo is one of the most iconic and stunning natural landmarks on São Miguel Island. Nestled within the crater of an active volcano, this pristine lake is surrounded by dramatic landscapes of lush forests, rugged hills, and volcanic terrain. Its crystal-clear waters, often a vibrant blue, are a striking contrast to the surrounding green vegetation. As the highest lake on the island, Lagoa do Fogo offers breathtaking panoramic views and is a haven for nature lovers and hikers. The area is part of a protected natural reserve, ensuring its untouched beauty remains for generations to come.
