Ponta Delgada - Activities, Attractions & Shopping

Jul 20, 2025

São Miguel has some wonderful scenery and places to visit and it has good public transport infrastructure. If you want to bask in a thermal pool, head for Furnas and soak in the hot waters of Poças Dona Beija or Terra Nostra. The latter also has a superb botanical garden.

The twin lakes of Sete Cidades are also well worth a visit, and there are numerous walks to be taken around the island.  Recommended is  the walk down from Lagoa do Fogo to Agua do Alto past the now-derelict remains of hydroelectric power plants, a walk that can easily be done by using local buses.
