The volcanic
archipelago of the Azores is one of Portugal's best kept secrets. Like
a fragment of Europe adrift in the Atlantic, the nine islands are

up home, beautiful sights, great scenery combined with the local
culture to bring together the perfect place to live. The
largest island, São Miguel, is most notable for its crater lakes,
while the regional capital, Ponta Delgada has many fine 17th and 18th
century Baroque churches. On the east side, the spa resort of Furnas
is alive with steam vents, hot springs, boiling mud and other types of
geothermal activity.

Island was the first island to be discovered by Portuguese explorers
in 1427. Featuring an abundance of coves and sandy beaches, it boasts
