March 22, 2022 Osvaldo Hartline

Faial Island (Portuguese pronunciation: [fɐˈjaɫ]), also known in English as Fayal, is a Portuguese island of the Central Group (Portuguese: Grupo Central) of the Azores. The Capelinhos Volcano, the westernmost point of the island, might as well be the westernmost point of Europe, if the Monchique Islet, near Flores Island, is considered part of North America, for it sits on the North American Plate.

For me it was the first time doing horse riding but for some of my friends they were already familiar with that but anyway, everybody enjoyed a lot! This is actually a great way to discover the inside part of Faial island, and definitly the best way if you like horses! :D We'll come back for sure! Thanks again! Kevin - AzoresOnBoard
