Pico Island

Pico, one of the 9 islands of the Azores archipelago, and Mount Pico is also the highest peak in Portugal. It is very interesting to see the characteristic vines, surrounded by walls of black volcanic stone, the very rugged coastline where the waves break against the cliffs, wine cellars, and many other attractions...

Stunning countryside, really beautiful island. You can literally feel the power of the earth and the sea. Perfect vibe region and nice place to hike.

Very laid back. Love the wine tasting rooms. In July and August, there are festivals almost every day. Breat taking sunsets.

Peace and relaxation!!! Endless beauty, every visual seems like your looking at a post card

Nature at it's best! Came here during winter but we were blessed with good weather! too bad we couldn't see Pico Volcano but we manage to experience Nature like what we've always wanted. Very natural landscape. Hopefully it will stay this way for years to come.

Beautiful place for a nice summer vacation.

Incredible experience, this small yet mighty island is a hidden Portuguese treasure. Pico mountain is only a small part, whale watching/museum, swimming, terrific scenery, people, roads, lava tubes (Gruta das Torres) exploration, hotel options, real estate deals, the food is incredible, fresh ingredients from the vine, protected Unesco wine region and Wine museum, will visit again and again. I personally recommend visiting Lajes, Sao Roque and Madalena in that order. Take the boat to Faial or vice versa and you won't regret it. Make your reservations early, this has become a top tourist destination in the Acores/Azores.

Quiet, beautiful, super nice people
