Ponta Delgada
Tag 1-4
You will very likely arrive in Ponta Delgada airport - our accommodation is around 10-15 min away by taxi/bus. Today, we will finally meet each other and São Miguel for the first time! Let us have our first dinner together and talk about the upcoming days. I hope you are as excited as I am. 🥳

Vila Franca do Campo
Tag 4
As it's our first day here, and some of you might be feeling a bit fatigued, we're offering options for your morning activities. Would you like to embark on a thrilling whale-watching 🐋 adventure? Or perhaps you'd prefer to catch up on some extra sleep and later take a leisurely stroll through the city? Please let us know your choice in advance so that we can make the necessary arrangements. The Azores' location is ideal for observing whales, dolphins, and other fascinating marine creatures. In the afternoon, we'll set out to explore the picturesque surroundings and nearby cities.

Sete Cidades
Tag 4
Today, we're in for one of the trip's coolest highlights! We'll be venturing into the renowned crater lakes of Sete Cidades, taking in the breathtaking scenery from multiple viewpoints and exploring the lush greenery with leisurely strolls. Don't forget to pack a picnic, so we can relish this absolutely stunning landscape together. Later on, we'll make our way down to the East Coast, where we'll embrace the vastness of the ocean. If our timing aligns well with the tide, we might even have the opportunity to take a dip in the pleasantly warm ocean water, thanks to the natural underwater heating! Our final destination, will be a super nice beach with a spectacular sunset! There are restaurants and bars nearby, so we won't go hungry. 😉

Ribeira Grande
Tag 4-8
Today, we'll begin our morning with a leisurely stroll through the city, savoring a delicious breakfast. Afterward, we'll pack our bags in preparation for our move to our next accommodation. As we journey north, we'll traverse a National Park teeming with incredible plant life, lush vegetation, and a captivating waterfall 🌿💦. Nearby, there's another waterfall we can choose to hike to if the mood strikes us! Once we've checked in at our new destination, we can unwind for a while, and in the late afternoon, we'll drive around for a bit and stop at scenic viewpoints and beaches.

Furnas
Tag 8
Finally, it's time for Waterfalls and Hot Springs! Let's aim to wake up a bit early today so that we can maximize our day. Especially in the morning, we need to be mindful of our time because we have a lunch appointment in the Furnas Valley, and punctuality is key. We will go for an around 3 hours hike, rewarded with two waterfalls and unique "jungle-like" atmosphere. Afterwards, at the Furnas village, we'll be treated to the traditional "Cozido das Furnas," quite possibly Portugal's most unique dish. This hearty stew is slow-cooked underground using volcanic heat 🌋 and will be served around 12-1 pm. It's an exclusive culinary experience that you can only find in Furnas on São Miguel of the Azores islands. In the afternoon, we'll indulge in relaxation at the hot springs and soak in the local ambiance. We'll also make a trip up a hill on the edge of the calderas to admire the village from a bird's-eye perspective. Prepare for a truly breathtaking view that awaits us!

Praia dos Moinhos
Tag 8
Since yesterday was quite an action-packed day, filled with various activities, we can take a more relaxed approach in the morning. Let's relish the beautiful beach 🏖️ right in front of our apartment for a while. There's also a lovely trail to a captivating waterfall nearby. You can join me if you're up for it, or simply indulge in some leisurely beach time. The choice is yours 🥰. In the afternoon, we'll finally make our way to the tea plantation. We'll amble through the lush fields, perhaps savor a cup of tea, and quite likely witness the fascinating drying and packing process of this delightful beverage! ☕️🫖.

Miradouro da Ponta do Sossego
Tag 8
There's one part of the island that we haven't explored yet—the Northeast! So, today, that's one of our destination! I know a great breakfast spot back in the Furnas Valley and some other pools we haven't had the chance to visit yet. That's how we'll kick-start our day. Afterward, we'll embark on our final hike of the week. Can you guess the reward? You got it—another mesmerizing waterfall! It might be the last one for the week, but I'm a waterfall enthusiast, and I could honestly admire different ones every day! As we make our way back home, we'll travel along the picturesque West Coast, making stops at various viewpoints to take in the grandeur of the towering cliffs and lush landscapes. 🗼 On our last evening, let's cap off our fantastic time together by visiting a trendy beach bar in Santa Barbara and celebrating our unforgettable adventure! 🌟🥂
