Ponta do Sossego

São Miguel is home to many breath-taking view points and Ponta do Sossego is one of the most gorgeous that can be found on the north coast of the island through the Azores Archipelago.

This viewpoint provides its audience with a picture perfect landscape of where the Island meets the vast Atlantic Ocean.

Ponta do Sossego has been graciously preserved with delightful gardens full with various flora found on the island. There are picnic areas available for the visitors who would like to spend a little more time enjoying this beautiful backdrop. Don’t forget to charge your cameras on arrival as this viewpoint is a photographer’s dream landscape. Definitely one of the viewpoints that Sao Miguel has to offer that must not be missed. Perfect for a quick stop on route or a leisured afternoon enjoying a picnic.

This look-out spot is traditionally used by families for picnicking during summer weekends. Travellers who come here during the summer holidays sometimes find it difficult to find a free fireplace to prepare their meals.
