Faial was one of the four islands of the Azores archipelago I visited recently.
This piece of Portugal sits in the mid-Atlantic, more than 1,500km from the country’s mainland.
Memorable moments of Faial: The captivating volcanic landscape and lighthouse of Capelinhos. The volcano last erupted in 1958. The delightful port of Horta, which sits in the shadow of Mount Pico.

What a gorgeous place! Looks like it’s in the middle of nowhere. One of the lesser visited of the islands? I love the shrouded image – just a hint of a peak peeking out above the clouds! :)

It’s not one of the wee islands but does have a certain feel to it. I end up judging these locations by the photographs it’s produced!
