The islands lie in the path of Atlantic weather systems, so showers and wind can arrive quickly at any time of year, and a waterproof layer is worth carrying.
Limpets, tuna, grilled fish and caldeirada fish stews are common, and most islands make their own cheese, so meals around Ribeira Grande tend to draw on local produce. Portuguese is the main language, spoken with distinctive island accents and local words, which helps to pick up a few phrases before arriving. Pico in the Azores is the highest mountain in Portugal, and vineyards there grow inside walls of volcanic stone, a detail that reflects the archipelago's volcanic character. First-time visitors can expect a northern base within easy driving distance of the island's main towns.
