Places to Visit

Caldeira da Graciosa

Furnas do Enxofre

Gruta do Carvão

Pedreira do Campo, do Figueiral e Prainha

At a height of over 100 metres, visitors can see a wall of pillow lavas, proving that this part of the island was submerged thousands of years ago.

Pico das Camarinhas – Ponta da Ferraria

Ponta de Rosais

Praia Islet

The Praia Islet, in front of the island’s only sandy beach, stands out from the blue sea given the green vegetation that covers its surface and has been classified as a Special Protection Area, as it lies along the route of the Monteiro's Storm Petrel, the only seabird endemic to the Azores

Rocha dos Bordões

Whale Islet

The brightness of the sunset enhances the surreal nature of the Ilhéu da Baleia (Whale Islet), a true symbol of the island of Graciosa and of the entire archipelago turned into a whale sanctuary.
