São Jorge

São Jorge – The island of fajãs, trails, and intense flavors.

With vertiginous cliffs and more than 40 fajãs – coastal plains formed by landslides or lava – São Jorge is a paradise for hiking and immersing yourself in the rural landscape. The famous São Jorge Cheese (PDO) is a symbol of the island's agricultural culture. The Fajã da Caldeira de Santo Cristo, accessible by trail, is a landmark for nature and contemplation tourism. The island maintains a strong community life, rooted in values of authenticity and sharing.
