Top Lagoa Car Tours in 2026

This tour is unique because we will visit two iconic places of the Azores, The Lagoon of Fire is the second largest of the island of São Miguel and one of the largest of the Azores. It has been classified as a natural reserve since 1974 and is part of the Natura 2000 network because it has been classified as a special conservation zone. The Seven Cities Lagoon is probably the most iconic and recognized natural monument in the Azores. In a region with so many landscapes, the image of the Seven Cities is numerous times chosen to represent or promote the island of São Miguel and the archipelago. Named one of the Seven Wonders of Portugal and classified as a protected landscape by the Natura 2000 network, the Seven Cities are a unique place in the world, which any traveller passing through these islands has a duty to visit.
