How I Explored Faial Island’s Black Volcano — Capelinhos Dramatic Beauty & the Buried Lighthouse! 🌋

The Capelinhos Volcano on Faial Island, Azores, stands as a powerful testament to the raw geological history of the archipelago. This unique Geo-site, which resulted from a thirteen-month eruption between September 1957 and October 1958, is now one of the most popular tourist attractions in the region. In this video, we explore the breathtaking and unique post-eruption landscape, marked by stark, black volcanic ashes that contrast dramatically with the green Azorean environment. Must-See Attractions at Capelinhos: • The Capelinhos Lighthouse: This historic monument was partially buried by ash during the 1957-1958 eruption. Visitors can climb the 35-meter-high tower to reach the panoramic viewpoint, which rewards them with a magnificent view of the volcanic cones and the Atlantic Ocean. • Capelinhos Volcano Interpretive Center (CIVC): Nestled into the landscape, this architectural marvel offers an informative, educational, and scientific experience about the eruption, its impact on global volcanology, and the history of Azorean lighthouses. • The Whale Trail: Starting and ending at the CIVC car park, this path highlights the area's importance during the former whaling era. • The Volcanic Shoreline: Note the significant land expansion—the eruption added about 2.4 km² (or 2.5 km²) to Faial Island—and how the land dramatically meets the ocean. Pro Travel Tips (Plan Your Visit): The ideal time to visit is between May and September. Experts recommend starting your visit early in the morning to fully enjoy the stunning scenic beauty in a tranquil setting. Remember that walking on the volcano itself is currently impossible; observation is limited to the lighthouse or surrounding cliffs.
