Imagine going inside an actual volcano — something that should be on everyone’s bucket list! Other amazing highlights Terceira Island offers visitors seeking some natural beauty in the great outdoors include the Algar do Carvão, an ancient volcanic cave that you can walk inside, and which is home to some of the largest stalactites in the world -- all of which will leave you speechless and in utter awe.

Algar do Carvão: Gear up for the main event – a descent into the Earth! Algar do Carvão, meaning "charcoal pit," is an ancient lava tube and volcanic chimney formed over 3,200 years ago. Descend 90 meters (300 ft) through tunnels and staircases, and witness the cavern's awe-inspiring natural beauty. The volcanic rock formations and vaulted ceilings will leave you speechless.

Bonus Stops for Geo-Enthusiasts: For the ultimate geo-tourism experience, consider adding visits to Gruta do Natal and Furnas do Enxofre. Gruta do Natal is a smaller lava cave with unique speleothems (cave formations), while Furnas do Enxofre offers a glimpse into a former fumarole (a volcanic vent).
