The story
Perched on the coast of Angra do Heroísmo, Forte de São Sebastião is one of the island's historic strongholds, originally built to defend against corsairs and pirates. Today, as noted by the creators of Sentieri Golosi, the fortress houses a hotel, though their own visit was brief. The venue carries a 4.5-star rating and is tagged as both historic and tourist-friendly, offering a tangible connection to Terceira’s maritime past.
While the property itself isn't a restaurant, it sits at the heart of a city known for its regional Azorean flavors. The creators' video title hints at a famous nearby dining scene, but the focus here remains on the fortress's enduring role as a landmark. For visitors seeking a blend of history and a convenient base, the hotel inside Forte de São Sebastião provides an immersive stay without straying from the citadel's original walls.

One of the many fortresses of Horta, used mainly for defense against corsairs and pirates. There's a hotel inside now, but we just visited briefly.
