Cais da Silveira

The Wharf of Silveira (Portuguese: Cais da Silveira) is situated in the Bay of Fanal, in the civil parish of São Pedro, in the municipality of Angra do Heroísmo, along the southern coast of Terceira, in the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores. The region constituted part of a historical fishing anchorage, owing to the high cliffs and protection in the shadow of Monte Brasil; the cliffs of basalt formed from successive pyroclastic lava flows that resulted in the formation of the tuff cone.
