Overview

Explore with us the biodiversity and geodiversity of São Miguel Island. Start by visiting two of Ponta Delgada’s main botanical gardens, Jardim António Borges and Jardim José do Canto, where you’ll find impressive centennial trees, peaceful walking paths, and tranquil lakes that invite you to slow down and enjoy nature at its finest.

Continue the tour with a visit to Gruta do Carvão, the only volcanic cave on São Miguel open to the public. Classified as a Regional Natural Monument, this fascinating lava tunnel offers a unique glimpse into the island’s volcanic origins, with its striking rock formations and geological textures. This is the perfect opportunity to visit this amazing place, as it is almost always fully booked.

This is a perfect tour for those who appreciate nature, history, and the quiet beauty of the Azores.
