Lagoa do Fogo is one of the most picturesque and untouched spots on São Miguel Island. Here, you will see: • A deep volcanic lake with crystal-clear water, surrounded by high caldera slopes; • A landscape of pristine nature with green hills and dense forests; • A panorama of the ocean from the northern edge of the lake.
From the Pico do Carvão viewpoint, you get a panoramic view of the central part of São Miguel Island: • Both the north and south coasts — you can see both shorelines at once; • Green hills and volcanic ridges, covered with cryptomeria and eucalyptus forests; • Pastures and farmland, divided by traditional stone walls — a typical Azorean landscape; • Wind turbines lining the hilltops; • On clear days, you can see eastern parts of the island, including distant mountains and high plateaus. It’s a great spot to appreciate the scale and natural variety of the island.
From the Miradouro da Boca do Inferno viewpoint (at an altitude of about 700 meters), you get one of the most stunning views of São Miguel: • Three lakes: Lagoa Azul (the blue part of Sete Cidades), Lagoa de Santiago, and Lagoa Rasa; • The ocean in the distance, beyond the crater’s edge; • The village of Sete Cidades, nestled at the base; • Majestic volcanic landscapes with contrasting colors and relief. This iconic spot is perfect for panoramic photos and taking in the island’s natural beauty.
