Faial is the third largest of the islands of the Azores archipelago, which belongs to Portugal.
This island possesses such great beauty that it is known as the Paradise of the Azores, or the Blue Island, because of its splendid beaches and the hydrangeas that decorate the fields here. On Faial there is a large crater known as the Caldeira, about 2 km in diameter, and it is here that the Cabeço Gordo volcano, the largest on the island, is to be found. If you like adventure, then the island has cliffs for climbing. The Caldeira has a fantastic landscape of gentle hillsides and green vegetation.
The island's capital is Horta, a charming town that has some interesting architecture and a famous marina. The island is the ideal destination for those who love fishing, since the channels between Faial and other, smaller, islands are very rich in sea life for sport fishing. This island will captivate you with its scenery and all the activities on offer to make your stay in Faial unforgettable!
