In a few words

São Miguel Island is the largest of the Azores, forming the eastern group of the archipelago, along with Santa Maria Island, 81 km away. Overlooking a natural bay, the city of Ponta Delgada boasts a rich history and architectural heritage. The Portas da Cidade (City Gates) are the ideal starting point for exploring the city. They are easily recognizable by their three arches that connect the waterfront area and Praça da República. Note the typical architecture that highlights the contrast between white walls and basalt details, adorned with wrought-iron balconies. A seaside stroll to the marina will take you to the Portas do Mar, where, in addition to the cruise ship terminal, you can enjoy a sea pool and an area with several bars, all offering delightful moments of leisure.

The highlights

  • Discover nature in the middle of the Atlantic
  • Discover the most magnificent diving sites in the Azores
  • Enjoy a private guide for the tours
