Beyond its beauty and scientific interest, the place of Ferraria has another great richness: Two springs of volcanic thermal water, who warm the waters of the natural pool in Ferraria and that are used in the Thermal SPA. The therapeutic qualities of the of Ferraria's thermal waters lead it to become almost a place of worship.

The hot springs on the north shores of Furnas Lake is where we cook the "cozido", a rich meat and vegetable stew boiled underground in a huge pot.

The Azorean sea is one of the favourite destinations of the fans of big-game fishing. Enormous blue and white marlins swim in this part of the Atlantic, as well as dolphin-fishes and Atlantic bluefin tunas, among other species of tuna. Between the islands of the triangle (Faial, Pico and São Jorge), the challenge is always on, even though any of the remaining islands can be a point of departure for high quantity and quality fishing outings. On land, it is possible to find many specialised operators of big-game fishing. Those that prefer to fish independently may rent boats and equipment and leave in search of the coveted trophies.
