Ponta Delgada City Tour

INFORMATION

Start the tour at Plantação de Ananás dos Açores (pineapple plantation) to learn all about how its farming became popular, despite not fitting the climate of the island.

After that, take a stroll through the center of Ponta Delgada and visit the Main Church (São Sebastião), an Ex-Libris of this city due to its complex features and history.

Next, we head to one of the most iconic town squares in the Azores and the largest one in São Miguel Island, Campo de São Francisco (Town Square). Surrounded by historical buildings, this place is reminiscent of 19th Century Azores.

Then, we head to Ermida da Mãe de Deus, where you can get a panoramic view of Ponta Delgada’s Port, as well as most of the city.

Finish the tour by heading to Cerâmica Vieira, the first pottery factory in the Azores, where you can watch the whole process of making traditional clay Azorean dishware.

Note: The itinerary may vary on Sundays due to the weekly closure of the Vieira Cerâmica factory.
