Volcanoes of São Jorge
São Jorge Island is defined by its dramatic volcanic ridge, a series of over 200 scoria cones stretching along its central spine. This list highlights key geological features like the Bocas de Fogo, site of the destructive 1808 eruption that impacted Urzelina. These peaks and fissure systems, including the Manadas complex, showcase the island's basaltic history and provide vantage points over the coastal fajãs created by ancient lava flows.
