Sete Cidades is probably the most famous village in the Azores and that is no surprise as it offers the most scenic view of Sao Miguel and the Atlantic Ocean.
Once there you can enjoy the mesmerizing vistas, sunbathe, walk around its little beaches full of breeding seagulls or hike on the trails around.
The lake is hidden in a lush tropical forest deep into the island and is almost impossible to find it. Only the birds chirping and a bit of splash from the fishes in the lake.
This makes it perfect for people that would like to alone with their own thoughts. The place is known for having lots of little ponds and waterfalls connected with each other.
While there you can get a cup of tea to try, tour around the factory and observe how tea is made or simply wander around the beautiful tea fields.
