By buying a typical souvenir, you will bring a piece of the Azores home with you.

Typical souvenirs would be:

  • Artisanal cheese – Creamy cow or goat cheeses produced by local farms.

  • Tea from Gorreana or Porto Formoso – Europe’s only tea plantations, offering black and green teas.

  • Volcanic lava stone crafts – Keychains, small sculptures, or ornaments reflecting the islands’ volcanic heritage.

  • Handmade pottery or textiles – Plates, mugs, tiles, or embroidered linens crafted by local artisans.

  • Local honey, jam, or marmelade – Sweet preserves made with fruits or herbs from the area.
