It is worth visiting the Mata dos Dragoeiros (Dragon Tree Wood) on the island of Pico and seeing one of the largest concentrations in the Azores of this species of tree that is native to Macaronesia.

The Mata is part of a rural vineyard that dates back to the 18th century and also contains the Wine Museum. Make sure to find out about the history of Pico's vineyards and appreciate the quality of this Azorean drink.
