Azores holiday - self catering
accommodation on Faial Island The property is in the locality of Areeiro, on the island south side, just 9km from the airport and 18 from Horta town. Despite being very small, Areeiro has a mini market and a local restaurant which are 5 minutes walking away from the cottages.
The sea is in the horizon and the Varadouro bay, just 2km away, is a special place to dive, fish, swim in the natural pool, walk on the shore or just lay under the sun. At Capelinhos cape, visit the Interpretation Centre, discover the old lighthouse ruins, climb up to the top of the volcano, swim in the old whale hunting port, watch the birds and endemic flora.
Azores is not a beach destination or otherwise susceptible to mass tourism; indeed, its capricious climate (3 seasons in one day) probably impedes the flow of tourists. The islands' green volcanic mountains and picturesque black-and-white towns look set to remain unspoiled. Let us keep it this way.
