The Azores – Astonishing landscapes
Azores holidays offer splendid isolation, extraordinary landscapes and a fantastic array of outdoor activities. The Azores are a group of Portuguese islands in an incredible Atlantic Ocean location, 930 miles from Lisbon. The majority of Azores holidays are based on the central islands of Graciosa, Pico, Faial, Sao Jorge and Terceira, but Azores holidays are increasingly featuring the lesser-known islands of Sao Miguel, Santa Maria, Flores and Corvo. Whether a more populated island like Sao Miguel or a tiny island like Corvo, Azores holidays cannot fail to leave a lasting impression, thanks to magical, almost other-worldly volcanic landscapes with rich, intensely green farmland, wild flowers, gorgeous emerald lakes, vast open skies and beautifully blue seas.
Holidays in the Azores – Magical atmosphere
Azores holidays enjoy a uniquely romantic atmosphere: a delightfully slow pace of life, wonderfully quaint old-fashioned towns, tiny characterful hamlets, gorgeous churches and charming festivals. Farmland is dotted with isolated farmhouses, vineyards and fruit orchards. The dramatic rugged coastline is punctuated by bays and tiny coves offering calm, clear, blue water ideal for relaxed swimming. Those looking for a tranquil holiday amidst extraordinary scenery will find Azores holidays still offer an unspoilt and delightfully low-key destination.
