This fascinating natural formation reveals the raw power of volcanic activity and offers visitors a unique opportunity to walk through illuminated tunnels and chambers formed thousands of years ago. Guided tours provide insight into the geology, history, and legends surrounding the cave.
Finally, visit the José do Canto Botanical Garden, one of the largest and most impressive botanical gardens in the Azores. Nestled in a lush valley, this garden showcases an extensive variety of rare and exotic plant species collected from around the world. Stroll through themed areas featuring towering trees, vibrant flowers, and serene water features, all carefully cultivated to highlight the beauty and diversity of plant life.
