    Hiking

    For dinner on the beach of Ribeira Grande.
    At the beginning of summer, despite the location far to the south, the sun only sets after 9 p.m. because the Azores are placed in a time zone that keeps the time difference to Portugal smaller.

    Depending on the weather, the sea here is sometimes calm, or sometimes wavy and stormy with whitecaps.

    Hiking

    You can safely swim here. The pools were closed when we visited. But we didn't have to pay an entrance fee for that either. Toilets, showers and changing rooms available.
