Praia de Lagoa do Fogo

Praia de Lagoa do Fogo is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Azores, located on a crystal clear volcanic lake.

Surrounded by lush vegetation and the green walls of the volcanic crater, this unique place was declared a nature reserve back in 1974.

The PRC2 trail leads through diverse landscapes to the southeastern shore of the lake, offering unforgettable views. Nature lovers can observe endemic plant and bird species, while the brave can take a refreshing swim in the crystal clear waters at one of Portugal's seven best wild beaches.
