In center of the Island they wait for the fascinating landscapes to us of Lagoa do Fogo, without a doubt one of the great natural attractions of the island (island that, on the other hand, abounds in beauties of the nature). This great blue lake - about 2 km in length by 1 of wide occupy the ground of the crater of a already extinct volcano and whose boiler formed of definitive way after the 1563 eruption. This mystical lake, surrounded by high mountains and abundant endemic vegetation transmits an atmosphere of peace and serenity where the beauty reigns. Their waters are transparent, are a small peninsula and beaches of white sand. Natural reserve has been declared.
Arriving from the north, halfway of the crater, we found Caldeira Velha a place of exuberante endemic and even tropical vegetation with an active fumarola and a natural swimming pool under a cascade with hot water (38°C) sulfurosa that she invites to a relajante bath at any time of the year! In this area it becomes evident that in the region it continues being volcanic activity.
