Fajã do Boi
Appearance
Fajã do Boi is a cliff located in Rosais on the north coast of São Jorge Island in the Azores, located between the fajãs de João Dias and da Ermida.
There is no human habitation in the surrounding area; people come in to farm and to fish in winter and spring. Popular agricultural products included potatoes, livestock and winery.
During the 1980 earthquake, the area was completely abandoned, its residents fled to other areas. Today, fishing is common near the base of the rock, but agriculture has been all but abandoned.
