Admire the outside and inside different caves, like the Elephant cave, Dream cave, Furado Grande, and admire the waters while looking down through the glass-bottomed boat. Afterward, take some time on your own to explore the Island.

Look out over the turquoise waters from the beach. Walk up to the lighthouse and imagine yourself alone. Then understand more of Portugal's history by examining the remains of Forte S. Joao Batista and walk the Island's trails.
