Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Le Centre d'interprétation environnementale de Dalberto Pombo (CIADP) est le résultat de la reconstruction d'un bâtiment au début du quartier historique de Vila do Porto. Ce centre abrite le domaine du naturaliste Dalberto Pombo, pionnier dans l'étude de la diversité géologique et biologique de l'île et son objectif principal est de promouvoir la connaissance du patrimoine naturel, de manière dynamique et interactive, à caractère éducatif et scientifique.
Barreiro da Faneca est une vaste zone de terrain aride et argileux, appartenant principalement à l'unité géologique appelée "Formation de Feteiras", constituant un paysage semi-désertique de couleur jaune-rougeâtre, unique aux Açores.
Dans sa partie aval, le lit de Ribeira do Maloás, à la place de Malbusca, présente une cascade dans un affleurement étendu de colonnes basaltiques de 15 à 20 m de haut et une extension d'environ 220 m. Cette disjonction prismatique, ou colonnaire, est associée à une coulée de lave basaltique subaéro du complexe volcanique du Pico Alto, dont les prismes, de dimensions notables, sont tronqués en haut révélant un plancher polygonal hexagonal de type «Calçada de Gigantes», une structure volcanique célèbre d'Irlande.
C'est l'une des plus grandes chutes d'eau du Portugal, à cent mètres de haut. À la base de la cascade, il y a un lac peu profond et, sur l'une des rives, un endroit où vous pouvez pique-niquer.

We stayed at the bungalow in the campingsite for some days and all it was wonderful!!! Very clean and beautiful view at the sea!!! Marco so nice and ready to help with anything !!!
Thank you very much for your kind words it was a pleasure to meet you, hope to see you again in Santa Maria at our Campsite, all the best. Marco
My father was born on Santa Maria, but he moved away over 50 years ago as a young boy so he didn’t remember his way around the island. Marco agreed to pick us up from the airport when we landed at 0700 and start the tour 2 hours early. The island is beautiful, and Marco’s love and passion for his home are evident throughout. A delicious lunch at a local restaurant was included in the price. Overall, it was terrific tour and the highlight of my families trip to Portugal. If it was possible to give the tour a higher rating than 5 stars I would. Thank you so much for an excellent day. I hope to come back in the future and book again with Paraiso Radical.
We do guided tours everywhere we go and most are exceptionally good but this was extra special exceptionally good. Marco made everything perfect. He is rightfully very proud of his island with all the history and details anyone could ever want. Yes, that is the job of a tour guide but you will find him to be exceptional. At the end of our Friday tour he came back to our hotel and said there was something he forgot to show us and came back in the morning to give us the free extended tour. If you want to rent a kayak, scooter or bicycle be is also your guy.
Thank you Russ, I really appreciate your kind words, it was really a pleasure meeting you and Cynthia, hope we meet again. All the best
I had an amazing whirlwind day seeing every single inch of the island of Santa Maria! The tour culminated at Pico Alto rhe highest point of the island where i got an amazing perspective of the whole iland with stunning views! My guide was very personable, flexible and accommodating. I was delayed in arriving and he was gracious enough to change the date and even dropped me off at the airport because we didn't have time to ho back to the hotel. All in all a wonderful experience!
This was an amazing experience with a wonderful and fun guide. Marco was a local and well known on the island. He knew almost anything we could ask and was always willing to go wherever we wanted. Santa Maria is such a beautiful Island, literally ever turn was a post card. My husband and myself were so happy to be shown around with such hospitality despite knowing no Portuguese, we look forward to returning. PS he also dealt well with our 16 year old nephew.
Hi Rose, It was a pleasure to do the tour, thank you for your kind words. Hope to see you again in Santa Maria, send my regards to all of you, stay safe. Best Regards Marco Carvalho
Marco gave us a thorough tour of Santa Maria. He is knowledgeable about the island & its many wonders. He went overboard to ensure that our needs and interests were met. As a native of the island, he shared spots that we would never have discovered on our own. What a delightful day!
Besides the day is already very special👍, still became an exceptional day just because I requested the services of ParaisoRadical, do as I do and you will have the best guide and above all the best company in Santa Maria👏👏, in my name and of my family👍👍 👍 👍, thank you.!
