Terceira Island is part of the Azores archipelago and a true gem in the heart of the Atlantic. Despite its modest 400 km², it is full of surprises that enchant both visitors and locals, who never tire of rediscovering it. With around 56,000 inhabitants, it is a place where tradition meets the present, and every corner holds a secret worth exploring.
The best time to visit the island is from May to October, when the weather is milder. But, truth be told, the magic of Terceira is timeless – even during the rainier months, it’s still worth the trip. To truly see and experience the island, a four-day itinerary is recommended, allowing enough time to relax and fall in love with its authenticity.
