Perched 542 meters above the sea, the Serra do Cume viewpoint offers a vision that seems woven from dreams. One of the most iconic vistas of Terceira Island — and of the Azores themselves — this breathtaking lookout unveils a vast green tapestry, stitched with stone walls and winding paths. Inaugurated in 2008, it rests atop a primordial volcano whose ancient crater stretches nearly 15 kilometers wide, whispering stories of fire, time, and tranquility.
