Visit the scenic road & viewpoint of "Coroa da Mata" This location offers panoramic views of the north coast.

Cascata do Porto Formoso
The Limbo Waterfall is an oasis of serenity and accessibility. It is a modest waterfall in terms of height, but of remarkable picturesque beauty. The surroundings are dominated by the vibrant green of the vegetation and, seasonally, by the explosions of color from the blue and white hydrangeas that line the path. It's a place for easy contemplation and rest, accessible to all visitors.

Cascata do Risco
In the green heart of the Nordeste municipality, the Cascata do Risco waterfall is a well-kept secret that seems straight out of an Azorean fairy tale.
This waterfall in São Miguel offers an experience of absolute serenity, where the sound of the water crashing against the rocks dominates the silence of the forest.
If you're looking for a refuge away from the crowds, this is the ideal setting for total immersion in the island's purest nature.

Parque Natural da Ribeira dos Caldeiroes
Continue to the Ribeira dos Caldeirões Waterfall, perhaps the most emblematic and photographed in the Azores. It is not one, but several waterfalls that are harmoniously distributed in a well-maintained park in Nordeste. The main waterfall is majestic, with water falling in a veil over a natural stone. The park is a perfect symbiosis between human intervention and nature, where old stone watermills from the 16th century have been restored and integrated into the landscape. The contrast between the rustic architecture, the stone bridges, the emerald green of the vegetation, and the purity of the flowing water creates a fairytale setting, easily accessible and enchanting with its scenic beauty and landscaping.
