Colourful yachts bob just offshore the prettiest island in the Azores, its curvy coastline locked in the embrace of its formidable cliffs. A bevvy of blue hydrangeas and beech trees drape hillsides dotted with terra cotta roofs and majestic churches. Grand panoramas continue from atop the volcanic caldera and Espalamaca Belvedere. Returning to terra firma, peace and tranquillity pervade whilst you linger along black sand beaches watching whales dance in the distance.
