Poça Simão Dias, located on the beautiful island of São Jorge in the Azores, is one of the archipelago's most spectacular natural pools. Surrounded by steep cliffs and formed by ancient volcanic activity, this hidden gem offers a unique opportunity to swim in crystal-clear waters amid breathtaking scenery.

Located on the north coast of São Jorge, near Fajã do Ouvidor, this natural pool is surrounded by impressive rock formations that protect the poça from the open sea. Its clear blue waters, filled by the tides, are calm and inviting, making it the perfect place for a relaxing swim or snorkelling adventure. The unique geological features of Poça Simão Dias, including smooth lava rocks and natural pool structures, create an almost magical environment where visitors can immerse themselves in the peace and beauty of nature.

Whether you visit in the early morning or at sunset, the play of light in Poça Simão Dias creates unforgettable images that perfectly capture the essence of the Azores.
