Apiário Margaridas

Discover the world of bees in the Azores

Apiário Margaridas invites you to explore the fascinating life of bees in the peaceful countryside of São Miguel. Located in Lagoa, on land regenerated into a forest of native and melliferous plants, this ecological apiary offers a unique wildlife experience in the Azores. Here, bees thrive among endemic species and volcanic landscapes, an ideal setting for those curious about nature and pollinators.

Led by Carolina, a biologist and passionate beekeeper, the bee watching experience takes you deep into the world of honeybees. After a safety and biology briefing, you'll suit up and step into the apiary to observe the hive up close. From identifying castes to spotting the queen, every moment reveals the incredible organisation of these vital insects.

This immersive tour in São Miguel also includes a tasting of raw honey, each variety reflecting the rich biodiversity of the Azores. With small group sizes, professional equipment, and expert guidance, it’s both a safe and inspiring activity for adults and children from 6 years old.

Whether you're a nature lover, a curious traveller, or a family looking for a meaningful experience, Apiário Margaridas offers a mindful and educational way to connect with the bees of São Miguel, and with nature itself.
