New Destination Alert: Impactrip has Arrived in the Azores!

8th July 2025

Where Volunteering Meets Nature and the Magic of Paradise

We have exciting news to share: Impactrip is expanding to the Azores!
Our mission to create meaningful travel experiences continues, and this time we’re heading to São Miguel, the green heart of the Atlantic Ocean. Known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, rich marine life, and vibrant culture, this incredible island is now a part of the Impactrip family and we couldn’t be more thrilled.

But this isn’t just about adding a new destination to the map. It’s about inviting you into a journey where travel, purpose, and nature go hand in hand.

💚 Why São Miguel?

Picture this: volcanic craters filled with turquoise lakes, hot springs bubbling in the middle of lush forests, whales leaping just offshore, and trails that take you through fairytale-like scenery. São Miguel is a place that awakens your senses and grounds you in the present moment.

And now, with Impactrip, you can experience all of that while making a real difference.

👐 Volunteer Programs in the Azores

Our new programs in São Miguel are designed to support the local community and environment, while offering you the chance to develop new skills and form unforgettable connections.

Here’s what’s currently available:

  • Youth Support: Engage with local children and teens through educational and creative activities.
  • Community Support: Assist with daily tasks and inclusive projects that improve local life.
  • Sustainable Farming: Work on ecological farms promoting food sovereignty and regenerative agriculture.
  • Digital for Change: Help NGOs and community initiatives by using your digital and creative skills.

Each experience is part of a broader vision: travel that leaves a positive footprint — on people, on the planet, and on your own journey of growth.

🐋 Adventures That Restore Your Soul

The Azores aren’t just a stunning destination — they’re a sanctuary for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Here’s what you can look forward to outside your volunteering hours:

  • Whale & dolphin watching in protected marine zones
  • Snorkeling and swimming at Vila Franca Islet, a natural volcanic lagoon
  • Canyoning in the lush Ribeira dos Caldeirões
  • Kayaking and SUP in the Sete Cidades twin lakes
  • Hiking to panoramic viewpoints over Lagoa do Fogo or Salto do Cabrito waterfall
  • Bathing in hot springs in Furnas, followed by a taste of the famous volcanic cozido

Whether you’re chasing adrenaline or seeking stillness, São Miguel has something for you.

✨ What Makes This Experience Special?

At Impactrip, we believe that travel can be a tool for transformation, for both the traveler and the host community. In São Miguel, you won’t just be admiring the beauty of nature from a distance. You’ll be living in it, protecting it, and learning from it.

The green mountains, the Atlantic blue, the warmth of the people, everything here invites you to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover your purpose.

Ready to Find Your Purpose in Paradise?

Volunteering in the Azores is more than a travel experience. It’s an invitation to be part of something bigger — to contribute, learn, grow, and fall in love with the world all over again.

🌱 Join us in São Miguel. Make an impact. Live the adventure.
