Town Hall of Ponta Delgada Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Beautiful Town Squares of Ponta Delgada
#2023travelwish
Ponta Delgada, on São Miguel Island, is the capital of the Azores archipelago of Portugal. The city centre is small enough to be explored on foot. You certainly won't miss the landmarks such as the Gothic-style Church of St. Sebastian, the 3-arched city gates Portas da Cidade, the town hall of Ponta Delgada and it's bell tower. The fountain, flowerbed and statue on front of the town hall make it a nice place to take insta worthy pictures! If you have the energy, do climb the bell tower as it offers spectacular views of the city from the top!
In 2023 I wish to explore another island in the Azores archipelago of Portugal. 😊

One of the best bell towers I have climbed!
#mytripvlog
One of the best bell towers I have climbed is in Ponta Delgada. We visited the bell tower at the request of my nephew and it turned out to be the one of the best attractions on São Miguel Island.
The bell tower is 29.6 m high and was built in 1724. It was closed for several years before it reopened in 2013. If you are physically fit, you should not miss the chance to climb the bell tower as it offers spectacular 360° views of the city at the top! The entrance is free. Be prepared to climb 106 eneven steps through narrow and spiralling staircase and watch out for gaps between the steps.
Location:
Torre Sineira de Ponta Delgada
R. do Açoreano Oriental, 9500-056 Ponta Delgada

Ponta da Ferraria Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Authentic Atlantic Spa at Ponta da Ferraria
#mytripvlog
Ponta da Ferraria is a lava delta located in Ginetes on the west coastline of São Miguel Island. There is an underwater geothermal spring that heats up the ocean. The heated water mixes with the cold water of the sea in a small cove to form a small natural thermal pool.
The entrance to the natural pool is free. The timing of visit is vital if you want to experience an authentic Atlantic Spa at Ferraria. The best time to visit is between two hours before and after the low tide when the water is warm. During high tide the current may be too strong and the water is not warm enough. There are ropes for you to hold on as the Atlantic waves are very strong. Swimming is only recommended during summer as there is a lifeguard on patrol.
Location:
Termas da Ferraria (this is the spa next to the natural pool, lots of parking space here)
Rua Ilha Sabrina, Ginetes, 9555-102 Ginetes, Portugal

O Baco Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
🇵🇹 Elegant restaurant @ Ponta Delgada
#freehotelstay
We had dinner twice at Restaurante O Baco during our stay in Hotel Ponta Delgada.
The restaurant is elegantly decorated and has a cozy ambience. The name of the restaurant, Baco, comes from the Roman god of wine. So you can expect a wide selection of quality wines to accompany your meal. A main course costs around 15 euros. We ordered catch of the day (fish) which was fresh and tasty. Steak was more expensive than the other dishes but tasted average. Kid's meal came with a soup, pasta and dessert. We loved their tiramisu!
Address:
R. João Francisco Cabral 49C, 9500-208 Ponta Delgada, Portugal

Hotel Ponta Delgada
Address -

We like that the room is equipped with a kettle, tea bags and a powerful hair dryer. We can have a cup of tea or a glass of wine and chill in the balcony while enjoying the view.
Highlights -
We stayed 4 nights in this cozy hotel in Ponta Delgada, the largest city in São Miguel Island, Azores, Portugal. The breakfast spread is quite standard but generally delicious. There are swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna. The bar serves good cocktails and the restaurant is nice too.
