Embark on a journey through the untamed north coast of São Miguel, in the heart of the Azores. Your adventure begins in Rabo de Peixe, a traditional fishing village untouched by mainstream tourism. Here, life moves to the rhythm of the sea; nets dry under the sun, boats gently rock in the harbour, and fishermen exchange stories as they prepare for their day. This is where you'll experience the raw, unfiltered spirit of the Azores.

As your boat sails eastward along the coastline, the island's northern face unfolds before you. Your local guide, an expert storyteller and geologist, will provide insight into São Miguel’s volcanic origins and its enduring traditions. Soon, the towering cliffs near the Santa Iria viewpoint come into sight, offering panoramic views where verdant fields meet the Atlantic Ocean. You’ll pass the lush valley of Praia dos Moinhos, once home to a series of watermills powered by a local stream. You'll also drift by the terraced rows of the Porto Formoso tea plantation, one of Europe’s last remaining tea fields.

This journey offers a glimpse into the rugged beauty and history of São Miguel, making it a memorable experience.
