Crater Lakes by 4x4

Ponta Delgada

Activity Experience

by 4x4 vehicle & on foot

This 4x4 experience provides you with the opportunity to explore off the beaten track, experiencing areas of the island of São Miguel that cannot be seen on a coach tour.

Departing from the port, your journey will take you both on and off road, crossing small streams and passing through local villages. You will visit the village of Sete Cidades and make photo stops at popular island tourist spots such as Santiago Lake and the Crater Lakes.

Along the way, see first-hand the ruggedness of the island’s terrain, covered with indigenous trees and shrubs. Feel connected to nature and escape the daily commotion of the urban areas during an Azorean adventure you will never forget.
