In September 1957 the Earth began to tremble and, from there, Faial was never the same. For 13 months, between September 27, 1957 and October 24, 1958, a volcanic phenomenon completely transformed this tip of Faial island in three distinct eruptive phases. Panicking, the inhabitants of Capelo and Praia do Norte runned away, or to the nearby islands or to the United States. Today, one can still verify the results of the eruption: fields and houses buried, the Capelinhos Lighthouse completely unusable (now renovated to the Volcano Interpretation Centre) and a rugged landscape, almost lunar.

You can get to this interesting ensemble by the Sol à Graça Street, by the Forno do Sul Alley or by the Pereira Alley.

House or room with typical decoration, with a very welcoming and familiar environment. Attractive grounds, ideal to rest and get to know this region.

Small belvedere with a panoramic view of the marina, Tróia and the Arrábida Sierra, where you get a glimpse of the São Filipe Fortress.

The picnics area of Odemira is a space with many trees. The tables and the wooden benches are fit for pleasant get-togethers with family or friends.

A space that functions both as a restaurant and as a bar. It gets its name from the building where it is located, original, with a dome's shape.

It gets its name from a nearby rock shaped like a horse. Access is by boat, but it is, nevertheless, a somewhat inhospitable place.

Located on the south bank of the Tejo river, by the Ponte 25 de Abril (April 25 Bridge), this space offers spectacular views of Lisbon. To get to the capital, one only has to get the train, the bus, the boat or go by car. Not far away, one can find the Costa da Caparica beaches.

The Santa Clara Church is all that’s left of the convent with the same name, whose construction was ordered by Dona Filipa de Lencastre. This real treasure with golden carving is hidden at the Square. It keeps its initial gothic structure, although it suffered changes through the XVII and XVIII centuries.

Pen restaurant is almost hidden in the locality of Altars. This typical restaurant made the grid card. On the spit, leads to table a rump of beef tender and juicy. Also makes the chanfana, inspired by the region's recipe of Arganil, in pots of black clay. Absolutely unmissable, in this House, is the sweet vinegar.
