Summary

Description

A Baía da Salga é uma baía localizada na costa sul da ilha Terceira, na freguesia vila de São Sebastião concelho de Angra do Heroísmo. Trata-se de uma baía histórica dado ter sido o palco da famosa Batalha da Salga, contenda travada no dia 25 de Julho de 1581 entre uma força militar de desembarque castelhana e as tropas que, em nome de D. António I de Portugal, pretendente ao trono de Portugal defendiam a ilha Terceira em oposição à união pessoal com Castela, no contexto da crise de sucessão de 1580.

Junto a esta baía existe um Monumento a Brianda Pereira, mulher que se destacou durante a contenda dado que à frente de um grupo de mulheres soltou sobre o Exército Espanhol que já se encontrava em parte desembarcado uma manada de touros bravos obrigando o exercito a retornar às embarcações e a retirar. Graças a este acontecimento a ilha Terceira conseguiu resistir aos invasores durante mais dois anos. Período esse em que a ilha Terceira foi o único território português independente.

Actualmente está transformada em zona de lazer ostentando nas suas imediações um parque de campismo, um porto de pequena dimensão e uma piscina natural. <a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ba%c3%ada_da_Salga" rel="nofollow">pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ba%c3%ada_da_Salga</a>
