Imagine strolling along Ponta Delgada Harbour for some great waterfront pics. It's located 0.4 mi (0.7 km) from central São Pedro. If you carry on walking you'll get to Ponta Delgada Marina for some more water views.
Beyond the iconic black-and-white mosaic sidewalks, Ponta Delgada reveals itself as more than just a gateway to São Miguel's natural wonders. The city's waterfront buzzes with cafés where locals debate football while eyeing incoming boats. Duck into blue-trimmed churches between shopping for volcanic stone jewelry in centuries-old buildings. At the marina, book whale watching tours where guides speak of sperm whales with familiar affection. Venture to Furnas for a soak in thermal pools or witness the otherworldly beauty of Sete Cidades' twin lakes. Antonio Borges Garden offers a peaceful retreat with exotic plants and hidden grottoes. After dark, harborside restaurants serve grilled limpets and fresh tuna caught that morning, best enjoyed with a glass of local Azorean wine.
