Vila Franca do Campo is a historic coastal town located on the southern coast of São Miguel Island in the Azores archipelago of Portugal. Once the first capital of São Miguel Island until 1522, when it was largely destroyed by a devastating landslide and earthquake, the town has since rebuilt while maintaining its historical character.

The town is known for its maritime heritage, traditional architecture, and the nearby Vila Franca Islet, a small volcanic crater that forms a natural swimming pool. The local culture reflects the rich Azorean traditions, with religious festivals, traditional handicrafts, and regional cuisine playing important roles in community life. The town's cultural heritage is evident in its historic churches, including the prominent Church of São Miguel Arcanjo, and its traditional building styles that showcase typical Azorean architecture.
