Biscoitos Coast & Natural Pools

A Front-Row View of the Atlantic

This live webcam looks out over the open Atlantic from Biscoitos, a coastal village on the northern shore of Terceira in the Azores. The lens captures the endless horizon where deep-blue ocean meets the sky, with powerful swells rolling toward the volcanic shoreline.

Famous Volcanic Natural Pools

In the foreground lie the village's renowned natural swimming pools, carved by ancient lava flows into the jagged black basalt. These iconic tide-fed basins draw swimmers and visitors to one of the most distinctive stretches of coast in the archipelago.

Mid-Atlantic Island Setting

Part of Portugal's remote Azores archipelago, Terceira rises from the sea roughly halfway between Europe and North America. The webcam offers a tranquil window onto island life and the ever-shifting moods of the surrounding ocean.
