Escapadas a Santa Maria

Santa Maria is the oldest of the Azores islands, it was the first to be formed and the first to be discovered. It is also the most southerly and easterly, making it the warmest and driest island. Due to the heat and yellowish vegetation, it has been nicknamed the Sunshine Island. The island is characterised by the chimneys of the whitewashed houses, the dark ochre of the earth, its golden beaches and turquoise waters. There is so much to do here, from relaxing on the beach, to watersports, to discovering the geological wonders of the island.
