🇵🇹 THE AZORES: EUROPE’S HIDDEN HAWAII Skip the 12-hour flight to the Pacific. In the middle of the Atlantic, Portugal’s Azores is a paradise you’ve never met. Think volcanic lagoons like Lagoa do Fogo, waves smashing into Boca do Inferno’s cliffs, secret waterfalls in Ribeira Quente, and Flores Island’s endless hydrangeas. Swim the volcanic pool at Vila Franca do Campo. Sip tea where Europe’s only plantation still thrives. Every corner is wild, cinematic, and alive. Source: BeautifulDestinations
