From the waterfalls to the sea (Faja Grande) definitely use the hiking trail, like from another time...

View of Fajã Grande

Highlight • Viewpoint

Fãja Grande is a pretty town on Flores west coast. Great hiking opportunities. The restaurants here are often not open at all... except for the snack bar at the campsite …

Poço do Bacalhau Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Beautifully landscaped path past old water mills. A truly fantastic waterfall... swimming is expressly permitted. Splendid!

Cuada Village

Highlight • Settlement

Best einnisten right in the hotel-fish village! Nice starting point for hikes. A troublesome fishing path leads to the sea. For swimming but unsuitable, since it is very rocky.
