Insel Faial
Your guide Ramiro, ready to welcome you with hospitality and show you the best of Faial Island.
Faial Island: Half Day Tour
Nossa Senhora da Conceição Viewpoint. From this location, you have the best view of the city of Horta and 3 neighboring islands.
Faial Caldera. We go through a tunnel and it seems like we have entered another reality.
Miradouro da Ponta furada, a place where you can observe crystal clear waters and the erosion of the coast.
View to Pico Island from Caldeira do Faial.
Caldeira do Faial, on this day we were treated to a beautiful spectacle with the clouds entering and leaving the crater. It is, without a doubt, something worth seeing and losing words for.
Luxurious, comfortable and discreet are the characteristics of our van. Travel in style and of course, in comfort.
Faial Caldera. Inside we can see its intermittent lake. It used to be a permanent lake but something has changed in the last few decades, come and find out what has changed.
Horta Marina, the 4th busiest in the world. The walls are filled with paintings made by sailors who pass by. This place is an authentic open-air gallery.

Dieses Angebot richtet sich an Menschen, die für einen Tag die Insel besuchen. Das Fahrzeug trifft die Fähre in Horta, sodass ein paar Stunden zwischen den Schiffen ausreichen, um das zu erleben, wofür Faial bekannt ist. Die Caldeira ist das Zentrum, etwa 2.000 Meter breit, sieben Kilometer um den Rand und 400 Meter tief. Die Insel entstand aus ihr. Capelinhos ist das andere Ende der Geschichte: grauer Sand vor grünen Hügeln und blauem Wasser, und der Grund, warum die Leute diesen Ort als "mondähnlich" bezeichnen. Zwischen den beiden Punkten liegt Monte da Guia, ein vulkanischer Kegel mit zwei halbkreisförmigen Kratern und einer Aussicht direkt auf Porto Pim und Horta. Dann der Aussichtspunkt Nossa Senhora da Conceição, mit der Altstadt und der Bucht auf der einen Seite und Praia do Almoxarife auf der anderen, Pico gegenüber mit dem höchsten Berg Portugals, und an einem wolkenlosen Tag auch São Jorge und Graciosa. Die Straße zur Caldeira führt oberhalb von Flamengos, der einzigen Gemeinde auf Faial, die nicht an das Meer grenzt, sondern von Bergen und Vulkanen umgeben ist. Der letzte Stopp sind die natürlichen Pools in Porto do Comprido, die aus Basalt entstanden sind, als Lava ins Wasser floss und aushärtete.

Av. 25 de Abril, Horta

Av. 25 de Abril, Horta, Portugal

The meeting point at the ferry station is outside, beside the glass exit door. There is a square with a taxi rank right at the exit. Your guide waits there in a grey Opel van.

  1. Monte Da Guia Walking Trail

    Monte da Guia is a volcanic cone with two semicircular craters. From up there the Porto Pim beach and the town of Horta are both below you.

  2. Miradouro de Nossa Senhora da Conceicao

    The Nossa Senhora da Conceição monument, with the old centre of the town and the bay of Horta on one side and Praia do Almoxarife on the other. Pico is across the channel, with Pico Mountain, the highest point in Portugal. On days without cloud, São Jorge and Graciosa are visible too.

  3. Flamengos

    The road to the Caldeira do Faial runs above the parish of Flamengos and looks down over all of it. Flamengos is the only parish on the island with no sea anywhere around it, shut in by mountains and volcanoes.

  4. Caldeira

    The Caldeira, in the middle of the island, is the true ex-libris of Faial. One of the largest volcanic craters in the Azores and the origin of the island itself: about 2,000 metres across, seven kilometres round and 400 metres deep.

  5. Capelinhos

    Capelinhos, one of the best known volcanic sites in the Atlantic and certainly in the Azores. The ground looks lunar, and the grey of the sand runs up against the green of the hills with the sea and the sky behind.

  6. We will visit the Natural Pools of Porto do Comprido

    The natural pools at Porto do Comprido, basalt basins formed when incandescent lava ran into the sea and set.
