What's great about Praia da Vitoria cruises?

Celebrations are in the blood of Terceira, the island that’s home to Praia Da Vitoria. This Azore’s nickname is ‘the festival island’ because there’s barely a day in the summer when someone or someplace isn’t throwing a party. And with all good fêtes, comes good food. Terceira has a cookbook’s worth of island-centric recipes. Even out of festival season, you can try these special dishes in a long list of traditional restaurants.

• Answer the call of the Azore’s Great Outdoors at Serra Do Cume. This green mountain is 545 metres high and, from the top, you can look out over acres of countryside and the sea in the distance.
• To see one of Terceira’s most popular tourist attractions, you have to go underground. The Algar do Carvao cavern was hollowed out by lava hundreds of years ago. The cave is dripping with stalactites and spiked with stalagmites.
• Alcatra is one of Terceira’s signature dishes and it makes a regular appearance on the menus of Praia Da Vitoria’s restaurants. It’s made with beef and white wine and served in a terracotta pot.
