Furna do Enxofre is a unique geological phenomenon located in Graciosa. This natural wonder is a large, deep cave with a sulfur-rich atmosphere and a beautiful, crystal-clear lake.
The cave was discovered in the 19th century and is located inside the Pico Island, the highest point in Portugal. It is believed that the cave was formed as a result of volcanic activity and the sulfur deposits in the atmosphere. The sulfur deposits give the cave its unique yellow hue and create a unique atmosphere inside the cave.
The lake inside the cave is the only source of fresh water on the island and is home to a variety of wildlife, including blind crabs and eels. Visitors to the cave can take a guided tour and learn about the formation of the cave, the sulfur deposits, and the wildlife that inhabit it.
The cave is a popular tourist attraction and a great place to explore the Azores’ natural wonders. With its unique atmosphere, sulfur deposits, and crystal-clear lake, Furna do Enxofre is an awe-inspiring sight that is worth a visit.
