Are you looking for something special to do in Horta? Get on a boat and sail the Atlantic waters in this whale-watching activity on Faial Island. You'll be able to see whales and dolphins in their natural habitat and discover fun facts about these marine animals.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the port of Horta to board a boat and begin our sail around Faial Island. The views are spectacular.

Depending on sea conditions, we'll sail around the north or south of the island with the objective of locating the dolphins and whales in these waters. Sighting cetaceans in their natural habitat is a memorable experience.

Did you know that 28 different species of whales have been identified in the Azores? We will explain why this Atlantic archipelago is often frequented by these marine creatures and provide tips on how to identify them.

You'll be able to take photos of the coastline of Faial Island during the crossing as we wait for the dolphins and whales to appear! We will maintain a respectful distance to not disturb them in their natural habitat.

After 4 hours of sailing, we will conclude the activity by disembarking at the starting point.
