Portugal Lagoa do Capitão

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

The Lagoa do Capitão is one of the best photo spots on Pico. There are plenty of opportunities to photograph the Pico here. It's worth coming here several times, as the weather is different every day. Often the Pico is shrouded in clouds, sometimes there is fog over the lagoon, then it is calm again and the mountain is reflected in the lagoon.

Photography Tips
