The Azores are a significant tourist and recreational area of great transport importance (location on the road from Europe to America, three airports, cable station). The islands are of volcanic origin – with a part underwater, they are about 4,000 m high. The coastlines are steep. That is why whales can be seen near the islands. There are frequent earthquakes and many mineral springs. What to see at Islands: Nice gardens, hills, bananas, hiking trails around lakes Sete Cidades, Poco Azul, Lagoa das Furnas or thermal bath at Ferraria hot springs… Choose.
