A paisagem combina vales de nascentes, pastagens cercadas e um litoral agreste de ba\u00edas e fal\u00e9sias, que se tornou um dos passeios preferidos da ilha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">As ba\u00edas da costa norte<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O trilho costeiro das Ba\u00edas da Agualva percorre cerca de quatro quil\u00f3metros junto \u00e0 costa, atravessando plataformas de lava e vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o rasteira. Passa pelo Miradouro da Alagoa, com vista para as ba\u00edas. As fal\u00e9sias mostram colunas de basalto prism\u00e1tico deixadas por antigas erup\u00e7\u00f5es, e a pequena reserva da Alagoa da Faj\u00e3zinha protege um tro\u00e7o de costa rochosa com vegeta\u00e7\u00e3o aut\u00f3ctone. O mar \u00e9 agitado e as rochas s\u00e3o escorregadias: este percurso \u00e9 para apreciar a paisagem, n\u00e3o para nadar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nascentes, moinhos e pomares<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No interior, a freguesia faz jus ao nome dado pelas suas nascentes: a \u00e1gua l\u00edmpida brota pelos vales, abastece o munic\u00edpio e, no passado, fazia mover dezenas de moinhos ao longo da ribeira principal. Os pomares de nogueiras e pereiras deram lugar a pastagens leiteiras, e a igreja de Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe preside \u00e0 aldeia, entre capelas de Imp\u00e9rio e fontes. O percurso de bicicleta el\u00e9trica para oeste atravessa a freguesia a caminho de <a href=\"https:\/\/realdreams.pt\/pt\/?post_type=to-visit&#038;p=61392\">Serreta<\/a>, enquanto as estradas para leste cruzam o interior da ilha at\u00e9 <a href=\"https:\/\/realdreams.pt\/pt\/a-visitar\/regioes-portugal\/acores-azores-islands\/ilha-terceira-2\/\">Ilha Terceira<\/a>e \u00e0s suas cidades g\u00e9meas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">O que ver<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>O trilho costeiro das Ba\u00edas da Agualva<\/li>\n\n\n<li>O Miradouro da Alagoa e as fal\u00e9sias de basalto prism\u00e1tico<\/li>\n\n\n<li>A reserva da Alagoa da Faj\u00e3zinha<\/li>\n\n\n<li>A igreja de Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe<\/li>\n\n\n<li>As nascentes e antigas ribeiras dos moinhos nos vales<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Informa\u00e7\u00f5es pr\u00e1ticas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Agualva fica no munic\u00edpio da Praia da Vit\u00f3ria, na costa norte da Terceira, junto \u00e0 estrada entre Biscoitos e o oeste da ilha.
