Ilheu da Vila Franca. An island within an island. There is a ferry running every hour. Cost of 8€ per person there and back.  Amazing for snorkeling.
Searching for an awesome place to stay on Sao Miguel? You must try the Convento de São Francisco in Vila Franca do Campo. An old monastery with a fantastic view and owners that are unbelievable friendly 👌

We have stayed here on previous trips to the island and this is one of my absolute favourite hotels, anywhere, comfortable in all respect’s, understated, unpretentious luxury. Also very close to all that Ponta Delgada has to offer, would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

small town with a beach, marina, and a few good restaurants. It is worth visiting for a day or two. short drive to Furnas and the hot springs. The people that we met in the village are very friendly.

5/5 - Excellent

Downtown is charming. But don't miss Nossa Senhora de la Paz, high above the town--do that first thing in the morning for beautiful lighting and no crowds.
