Your day begins with a half-day journey through São Miguel’s picturesque landscapes, starting with a visit to a local pineapple plantation. Here, you’ll explore how Azorean pineapples are cultivated in traditional glass greenhouses, and enjoy the sweet aroma of the fruit ripening around you. At the end of the visit, you’ll sample a delightful pineapple liqueur, a true island specialty.

The tour then takes you to the renowned Vista do Rei viewpoint, where you’ll be greeted by the breathtaking sight of Sete Cidades. From this stunning vantage point, you can admire the two iconic lakes—one blue and one green—sitting within a vast volcanic crater. The contrast between their colors, caused by different light reflections, makes this one of the most captivating views in the Azores, surrounded by rolling hills and volcanic cliffs.

Following this panoramic experience, you'll head to the secluded Lagoa de Santiago. Nestled within lush forests, this serene lake offers a peaceful retreat, with its quiet waters reflecting the surrounding natural beauty. The calmness of the landscape provides a perfect end to your exploration of São Miguel’s volcanic wonders.
