Velas is a municipality in the São Jorge Island, in the Portuguese autonomous region of Azores. The municipality of Velas occupies half the island of São Jorge, from the northwest coast to the interior around Pico Gordo. The western plateau is interrupted by several communities like São Pedro, Ribeirinho, Canadinha Nova and Norte Grande. The extreme coastal communities are relatively detached from the rest of these settlements and include Fajã da Ribeira Areia, Fajá do Ouvidor (the only fajã with road access) and several more.
