The coastal strip between the mouth of the Neiva River and Apulia, with a length of 18 kilometers, constitutes an ecosystem of rare importance, dominated by a stretch of sandy beach and primary and secondary dunes of great instability and at risk of erosion. The estuaries of the Neiva and Cavado rivers, as well as the pine forests and agricultural/rural areas, have just made up this protected landscape. In the rear, maritime pines protect much of the dune extension.

Inland, the diversity of botanical habitats deserves to be highlighted: laurel forest, cedar forests, peat bogs, reeds, among others.
Vulcão dos Capelinhos
- country
Capelinhos
9900-304, Horta
In September 1957 the Earth began to tremble and, from there, Faial was never the same. For 13 months, between September 27, 1957 and October 24, 1958, a volcanic phenomenon completely transformed this tip of Faial island in three distinct eruptive phases. Panicking, the inhabitants of Capelo and Praia do Norte runned away, or to the nearby islands or to the United States. Today, one can still verify the results of the eruption: fields and houses buried, the Capelinhos Lighthouse completely unusable (now renovated to the Volcano Interpretation Centre) and a rugged landscape, almost lunar.
