Terceira gets its name, unsurprisingly, from being the third largest island in the Azores archipelago. It’s the second largest island by population, and the largest of all in terms of chapels, festivals, and nightlife. While we were not destined to see the latter two, we spent our day exploring the island and visiting the scenic overlooks and dairy pastures before descending into the city of Angra do Heroismo, the oldest city of the Azores and a UNESCO Cultural World Heritage Site. Some took to a nearby volcanic remnant on the coast for an afternoon hike, while most of us enjoyed the scattered clouds and scenic streets of the town by foot.
