It was on the coast of Povoação that the settlement of São Miguel began, in the 15th century. From Lomba do Cavaleiro, Pôr-do-Sol and Pico Longo you see the town and its seven ridges running down to the sea; from Água Retorta, on clear days, the island of Santa Maria; and, to finish, Ribeira Quente, a fishing village at the foot of the Furnas volcano.
