Discovering Flores on a Two-wheeler

Rocha dos Bordões is one of Flores Island’s most iconic natural landmarks—a striking geological formation of towering vertical basalt columns resembling a giant pipe organ.

Formed by the rapid cooling of basaltic lava, this natural monument stands prominently on a hillside near the village of Mosteiro, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

The columns, adorned with moss and lichen, change hues throughout the day, adding to the site’s mystical allure. Recognized for its unique geological significance, Rocha dos Bordões has been designated a Natural Monument within the Flores Nature Park.

A waterfall plunging over 90 meters in the picturesque village of Fajã Grande.

With an average natural water storage cycle of about six months in the Azores, this waterfall is abundant during the rainy season but loses intensity in summer, often turning into a dense mist as it falls. Its waters collect in a natural lagoon surrounded by endemic Macaronesian laurel forest, which also serves as a bathing spot.
