Azores

Azores :

map Azores

Destination overview

At 930 miles away from Lisbon the volcanic islands of the Azores can be found out to sea, or rather, the Atlantic Ocean, to be precise. An enchanting archipelago, the green beauty of the islands is interspersed with tranquil lakes and volcanic landscapes. Scattered with flowers, the Azores islands gleam with the purity of nature, intact as if no one had ever lived there. A simple walk through the islands' countryside is captivating in itself. In addition, the locals are hospitable and the islands come alive with summer festivals and celebrations.

pros

  •  Vast spaces and breathtaking panoramic views
  •  An outpost of Portugal, therefore part of the EU, but out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean
  •  Authenticity and traditions

cons

  •  The weather can be unpredictable, the air is on the cool side and the beaches are of black sand
  •  No great architectural monuments due to potential damage by local active volcanoes.

Portugal Travel guide

Our Editorial team's advice

It's not a bad idea to pack a raincoat and an umbrella even in the summertime. If there's a rain shower enjoy the rainbows that brighten up the sky and seem to link the islands like a bridge. Also, organise your inter-island transport links in advance.
