Forte de Santa Cruz

The city of Horta, seat of the Azorean parliament, is a city rich in architectural and historical heritage, while, at the same time, being welcoming and peaceful, as is the way of its people.

Framed by the sea and the beautiful but imposing island of Pico, which is just 15 minutes away in a modern boat, this is a place where yachts from all over the world come to port, reinforcing the city’s tradition of being a cosmopolitan melting pot of races and languages.

Here, life really is archipelagian, given the proximity to each other of the three islands of Faial, Pico and S. Jorge. This is the ideal place for varied, relaxing holidays which take advantage of the natural beauty of these islands.
