São Miguel
São Miguel, in the Azores, is a place that feels like it was made for exploring. We recommend taking a boat tour along the volcanic coastline, discovering hidden coves and snorkeling in the clear waters. The natural hot springs along the coast were a highlight for us – there’s nothing like soaking in warm water with the ocean right next to you. São Miguel is a place of wild beauty, and every day felt like an adventure.
