A rental car at Terceira Airport is the best option to explore the island freely. A full loop of the island can be done in half a day. On Tino Rent you compare the available offers and book with free cancellation.

Terceira: UNESCO Angra, volcanic caves and festas

Angra do Heroísmo is the jewel of Terceira: a perfectly preserved Renaissance city centre, a natural harbour framed by two headlands, castles and convents recounting centuries of Atlantic history. The city has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1983.

With a car you can reach the volcanic cavern of Algar do Carvão, an extraordinary lava chamber with silica stalactites and a small underground lake. The Biscoitos natural pools, on the northern side of the island, are among the most beautiful in the Azores — black lava basins filled by the ocean, sheltered by breakwaters. Terceira is also famous for its festas do Espírito Santo and the tradition of touradas à corda (rope bull-runs), folkloric shows held in almost every village during summer. The Monte Brasil, an extinct volcano overlooking Angra, offers a scenic walk with views over the entire island.

The western coast of Terceira, around Serra de Santa Bárbara (the highest point of the island at 1,021 m), offers panoramic drives through pastures and small lava-stone villages. The northern coast, between Quatro Ribeiras and São Mateus da Calheta, hides quiet fishing harbours where to taste freshly caught fish.
