Flying to Terceira - Azores: tips and information for your trip
Terceira, one of the islands of the Azores, is a true natural wonder in the Atlantic. The island, which covers around 400 square kilometers, is reknown for its capital Angra do Heroísmo, whose historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and for its volcanic landscapes. Impressive caves like the Algar do Carvão and lush green pastures shape the landscape of this diverse island. Whether you want to experience the traditional culture, enjoy the hot springs or observe the diverse wildlife - Terceira is a paradise for explorers.
A Terceira flight takes you to a place with an exciting history. The fortifications of Angra were considered impenetrable in the 16th century. The island was therefore an important stopover for ships traveling across the Atlantic to or from Europe. While Portuguese colonists left the most significant marks, many other influences have shaped the character and culture of this Azorean gem. Today, you can enjoy this diversity as well as the tranquillity and natural beauty of the island.

What’s next after your Terceira flight?
When you fly to Terceira, you will land in the northeast at Lajes. The airport there is actually a military airport, but is now also used for tourism. There are various transportation options available for your onward journey. Hire cars are the best option for exploring the island at your own pace, as many of the highlights are off the main roads. Alternatively, you can take a cab or take part in organized tours, which often depart directly from the airport.
In Angra do Heroísmo, you can easily explore the historic old town on foot. Public buses connect larger towns on the island, but do not directly serve tourist destinations. To explore all corners of the island without a car, make sure to bring sturdy hiking shoes.
