Lakes in the Azores

Lagoa do Fogo

São Miguel

Top-tier lake on São Miguel, but very weather dependent.

Lagoa de São Brás

São Miguel

Out of the way, decent, but very forgettable.

Lagoa das Empadadas

São Miguel

Tiny, quiet, and very skippable. But hey, it’s on the way.

Lagoa do Canário

São Miguel

Small, simple, and a solid bonus stop next to Sete Cidades.

Lagoa do Congro

São Miguel

São Miguel at its rawest. No infrastructure, no comfort, no bullshit.

Lagoa das Furnas

São Miguel

Not the prettiest lake, but the one that stays with you forever.

Lagoa de Santiago

São Miguel

Small, quiet, and criminally underrated.

Lagoa das Sete Cidades

The postcard lake. And yes, it really is that good.
