Lagoa

Located on the south coast of the São Miguel island, at the bottom of the main crater of the Serra de Pau volcanic set, Lagoa is one of the oldest settlements in São Miguel. The territory is marked, to the east, by the slopes of the Fogo volcano (Água de Pau mountain range), and to the west by the Picos volcanic set. The place of Caloura, a port with a natural pool and several accesses to the sea trough the stairs, as well as viewpoints with superb views, is considered the municipality's ex-libris. There are several places where you can taste regional cuisine. Limpets in Afonso sauce and fish stew are specialties made in many restaurants. Sweets include "massa sovada", rice pudding and "mal-assadas".
