This excursion is unique because we will visit two iconic places in the Azores,
Lagoa do Fogo is the second largest on the island of São Miguel and one of the largest in the Azores. It has been classified as a nature reserve since 1974 and is part of the Natura 2000 Network for being classified as a special conservation area.
Lagoa das Sete Cidades is very likely the most iconic and recognized natural monument in the Azores. In a region with such a large number of striking landscapes, the image of Sete Cidades is chosen countless times to represent or promote the island of São Miguel and the archipelago. Named one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal and classified as a Protected Landscape by the Natura 2000 Network, the Sete Cidades are a unique place in the world, which any traveler passing through these islands must visit.

    The Lagoa das Sete Cidades is the largest natural reservoir of fresh surface water in the Azores, occupying a vast area that reaches 4.45 square kilometers, with a depth of 33 meters. It is characterized by the double color of its waters, being divided by a shallow channel, crossed by a low bridge that separates a mirror of green water on one side and, on the other, a mirror of blue tone. These characteristics, and the beauty of the surrounding landscape, gave rise to beautiful legends about its origin and formation, including the one that links it to the myth of Atlantis.
