Welcome back to www.magical-azores-islands.com. If you have been to the Azores you undoubtedly know why so many people love this enchanting archipelago of 9 remote islands. If you are just planning your first trip you might be wondering if you will enjoy your visit. I love the islands and think you will too. To help you see why I love the islands, I have summarized a few key points that I love about the islands, and included links to new pges, updated pages and some favourite pages. Why Do I Love The Azores?
The Lifestyle
Relaxing in cafes and outdoor patios (like the one pictured here), barbecues at scenic lookouts, beaches (see the updated Sao Miguel Azores Beaches page), and the relaxed quiet lifestyle. The Hiking

There are many great hikes here. Take this hike in Faial da Terra as an example.
The Ocean
When you are on an Atlantic Ocean island, thousands of miles from anything, the ocean is a focal point of your life. Whether it is simply being aware of the sights, sounds, smells and ocean breeze, or if you go swimming, sailing, surfing, fishing, diving or whale watching. If you haven't yet, read about a great day of Sailing in the Azores. We repeated this experience in 2011 and saw an unbelievable number of dolphins, one of which I captured in the picture above.
The Gardens and Flowers
