Natural Wonders: Waterfalls & Caves
This collection highlights geological landmarks across the Azores and the Algarve. It includes the Gruta de Benagil sea cave with its natural skylight and the Gruta das Torres, Portugal's longest lava tube. On São Miguel, thermal activity defines sites like Ponta da Ferraria’s oceanic hot springs and the iron-rich pools of Caldeira Velha. The list also features secluded waterfalls like Salto do Cagarrão and the thermally-fed Cascata da Ribeira Quente, illustrating the diverse volcanic and coastal formations of the Portuguese landscape.
Caldeira Velha
Thermal waterfall located on the slopes of the Fogo Volcano. The water is naturally heated by geothermal activity and flows into a pool surrounded by tree ferns and Macaronesian forest.
Ponta da Ferraria
A unique coastal formation where geothermal springs heat the ocean water within a natural rock pool. The warm water is best experienced during low tide.
Ribeira Quente's Waterfall
Located between two road tunnels, this waterfall is fed by springs that pass through volcanic rocks, resulting in naturally lukewarm water temperatures.
