I find it impressive how almost every small village by the sea in the Azores has its own "swimming pool". Either the natural pools are mainly used here, or actually a real swimming pool, sometimes only a simplified access to the sea. There are fewer beaches in the Azores. There is usually a restaurant or at least a food truck in these places.

Really a lot of nice big pools, some good for snorkeling too. Large parking lot in front of it.
