At the very tip of São Jorge, this is the island's first settlement and its most primitive and traditional area. The old town, with its colorful houses and convent overlooking the ocean, is well worth a visit. A few cows graze in season on the islet opposite. Curious minds may wonder how it's possible to bring these peaceful bovines to such a place... Well, it's quite simple: the cows... simply swim! The farmer follows them in a boat, guiding them as they take in the freshness of the waves. If you happen to be in the area, the scene is definitely worth seeing.
