Itinerário
O Centro de Interpretação Ambiental Dalberto Pombo (CIADP) foi fruto da reconstrução de um imóvel no início da zona histórica de Vila do Porto. Este Centro alberga o espólio do naturalista Dalberto Pombo, pioneiro no estudo da diversidade geológica e biológica da ilha e tem como principal objetivo promover o conhecimento do património natural, de uma forma dinâmica e interativa, com carácter educativo e científico.
O Barreiro da Faneca é uma extensa superfície de terreno árido e argiloso, pertencendo principalmente à unidade geológica denominada "Formação de Feteiras", constituindo uma paisagem semi-desértica de cor amarelo-avermelhada, única nos Açores.
Na sua parte a jusante, o leito da Ribeira do Maloás, no lugar de Malbusca, apresenta uma queda de água num extenso afloramento de colunas basálticas com 15 a 20 m de altura e uma extensão de cerca de 220 m. Esta disjunção prismática, ou colunar, está associada a uma escoada lávica basáltica subaérea do Complexo Vulcânico do Pico Alto, cujos prismas, de dimensões assinaláveis, estão truncados no topo revelando um pavimento de polígonos hexagonais do tipo “Calçada de Gigantes”, uma estrutura vulcânica mundialmente famosa da Irlanda.
É uma das maiores cascatas de Portugal, com cem metros de altura. Na base da queda de água existe um lago pouco profundo e, numa das margens, um local onde pode fazer um pic-nic.

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.!
