📍Azores, Portugal

Tag the person you’re ready to book a trip with to the Azores ⬇️

The nine islands of the Azores are remote indeed, scattered 1500km (932 miles) west of their Portuguese motherland. Created by up-thrusting seabed volcanoes, this mid-Atlantic archipelago is a playground of gnarled rocks, black sands, lava tubes, crater lakes and soaring cones – yet it’s also endlessly green, and produces excellent wines.

Join a boat tour to spot the oceanic behemoths, or watch from clifftop vigias – former whale-hunters’ lookout towers, repurposed for eco-tourists. You could also head to Pico Island to bag Portugal’s highest peak, hike around lakes and enjoy birdwatching and flowers on Flores, or plan a cycling trip on Terceira, the “lilac isle.”
