Ponta da Ferraria is a geothermal hot spring located on the west coast of the island of São Miguel in the Azores. The site is characterized by its unique geological features and natural beauty.

The hot spring is situated on a small rocky beach and is made up of two pools that are fed by a natural underwater hot spring. The temperature of the water can vary between 35-40°C (95-104°F), and it is rich in minerals such as iron, magnesium, and sulfur. The site is open to visitors and is accessible via a path down to the beach.

Visitors can enjoy bathing in the natural pools, which offer stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. The site is also a popular spot for surfers due to the strong waves in the area. Additionally, there are hiking trails in the area that provide stunning views of the coastline and the surrounding hills.
