Prainha Beach (Angra do Heroísmo)

Highlight • Beach

A nice little beach right next to the harbor. It can be reached via a long flight of stairs. When we were there it was too cold to take a bath. Maybe this was the fault that the beach was deserted.

Monte Brasil

Highlight • Volcano

Great hike from the city, up passing the army base and taking any of several paths to the two peaks - both worth a visit for tremendous views. Don’t miss the caldera and beautiful green crater. Lovely little volcano!

Pico das Cruzinhas Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

At the top of Monte Brasil there is a wonderful view of the beautiful city of Angra. For the sea view you have to go to another summit.
