Discover the Azores Islands

The archipelago of the Azores is located in the Atlantic Ocean and extends in a southeast to northwest arch that covers 600 km (372 miles). It is made up of nine islands clustered into three groups: the Eastern group (S�o Miguel and Santa Maria), the Central group (Terceira, Graciosa, S�o Jorge, Pico and Faial), and the Western Group (Corvo and Flores).

The islands occupy a privileged spot where geography and history come together in harmony; thus, a trip to Pico, the tallest island in the chain at an altitude of 2,352 m, (7,716 ft.) is a must. The eastern-most island is Santa Maria, at about 1,460 km (907 mi.) from the European coastline, whereas the western-most is the Island of Flores, situated 3,750 km (2,330 mi.) from North America.

The volcanic origin of the Azores can be seen in the number of volcanic cones, craters and other features throughout the islands.
The land area of each island varies, with the largest one, S�o Miguel, measuring 747 km2 (288 mi2) and Corvo, the smallest, only 17 km2 (6.5 m2).
