Weather
The weather in the Azores is quite exceptional, given its geographic location, the influence of the high pressure area named after the region (the Azores High) and the Gulf Stream.
The islands of Pico, Faial and São Jorge form this triangle.
Each island completes the other: the fajãs, the Topo Islet and the end of Rosais on São Jorge Island, the Caldeira crater, the Capelinhos Volcano and its Interpretation Centre on Faial Island, and the Whaling and Wine museums and Gruta das Torres on Pico Island are some of their attractions. |
