Travelers can also head to nearby Praia da Ribeira Quente, an unforgettable volcanic sand beach where geothermal vents warm the sparkling waves.

Vila Franca do Campo, Sao Miguel's former capital, offers historic charm with its churches, marina, and views of Ilheu de Vila Franca. During your 3-hour visit, explore the town center, try local queijadas pastries, and if interested, arrange a boat trip to the nearby islet nature reserve.
