OpenLast checked September 27, 2026
An easy coastal circuit from Mata do Café in Livramento, along the south shore between Ponta Delgada and São Roque. It passes black sand and pebble beaches, aa lava fields and the São Roque islet — the remains of a Surtseyan tuff cone and an Azores Geopark geosite — as well as the walled vineyard pits of São Caetano and the 17th-century São Caetano fort. 3.4 km; part of it runs along the regional road.
