Overview of your Ponta Delgada tour

This Shore Excursion let you know the Serra Água de Pau for a few stops at the wonderful Fogo Lake classified as a nature reserve since 1974, with its highest point of observation at 947m (3106ft) altitude, surrounded by dense and lush endemic vegetation. In this mountain has several springs that give rise to streams that pass through some waterfalls and some points are heated by volcanic hot springs as in the Environmental Interpretation Center of Caldeira Velha and Caldeiras of Ribeira Grande, with the oldest bathtub dating from 1803, later integrated in the building of the crown baths, built in 1811 that I can show you. Further east, on the north side of the island, stop at another small lake, but very quiet with only a few ducks that will welcome you, just next to the unique Gorreana tea plantation and factory and be able to visit it and see how everything works.
