Pico, one of the nine islands of the Azores, is home to a majestic and mysterious mountain and emanates a natural energy that’s perceptible to all who visit it. The four elements (earth, fire, water and air) have a strong presence, and the true essence of life and the connection between humans and nature can be authentically experienced throughout the island.
The island’s interaction with and proximity to the sea are the inspiration for a new concept that brings all guests closer to the natural elements and their benefits.
Baía da Barca embraces this union between man and nature, as demonstrated by its integrated sustainable practices, its respect for and contact with the natural elements, and the opportunity it offers of experiencing a connection with them in this sanctuary.
The elements are an integral part of matter and the physical universe. As the human body is a physical entity in the material realm, it also contains the four elements. Maintaining a balance between these elements is essential to ensuring physical and psychological well-being, as breaking their delicate harmony can lead to illness and discomfort.
If your goal is to try to achieve harmony and balance on a spiritual level, to expand your consciousness and, consequently, to reach the ether (serenity and peace), you’ll have access to a relaxation experience aligned with the four elements.
