South Coast — Caloura and Vila Franca do Campo

The sunniest coast of São Miguel. From the Pisão viewpoint you see the Caloura fajã, then go down to its harbour and natural pool; next, Água d'Alto beach and Vila Franca do Campo, the island's first capital, with the Queijadas da Vila and the seafront facing the Islet. To finish, the Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Paz, with the whole town at your feet.
