Fajã das Almas
São Jorge Island is also known as the "Island of Fajãs" due to the massive presence of these fertile spots, dotted with the occasional white house dotting the landscape. Fajã das Almas, also known as Fajã do Calhau, is another of these rare beauties, well worth a careful visit. Don't miss the Chapels of Nossa Senhora das Almas and Santo Cristo, the harbor, and the swimming area.
