Water Body · Hidden Gem · Nature / Park
Surrounded by volcanic rocks, Buraco do Galego represents a deep natural pool favored by daredevils who love plunging into it. This tiny swimming hole became popular after people started posting photos of it on social networks. Go early in the morning, since the pool is accessible only at low tide via a short trail cut into the side of a rock. The top of the rock offers views and perfect photo opportunities.
