About this beach
Praia da Vitória, on Terceira island in the Azores, is the largest sandy beach in the archipelago, stretching for over 1 km alongside the historic town of the same name. With fine golden sand, relatively calm waters and Blue Flag status, it is considered the most classic seaside beach in the Azores, with a level of services unusual for the islands. The town of Praia da Vitória, classified as a public interest monument, has a notable historic centre that complements the beach experience. The beach is just a few kilometres from Lajes Airport on Terceira's east coast, making it the most accessible beach in the entire Azores archipelago.
