This boat tour in São Miguel is the only way to find all the best-kept secrets of sea life in the heart of the Atlantic Ocean. The meeting point of this boat tour in São Miguel is at the Marina of Vila Franca do Campo for check-in. The journey will start with a briefing to teach you about the local Cetaceans (Whales and Dolphins) and other species, their natural habitat, communication, migration, behavioural patterns, and onboard safety. Did you know we have a lookout high inland in the mountains to help us find wildlife?

The staff at the lookout will then locate our friends, and provide directions. We’ll approach the dolphins slowly and carefully while you’ll be informed about the species. Please feel free to ask anything at any time. We’re happy to share our passion for the sea! Upon return to the Marina, the boat will tour around the Islet of Vila Franca do Campo, for a close look at this characteristic volcanic rock formation and local wildlife.

São Miguel
São Miguel, in the Azores, is a place that feels like it was made for exploring. We recommend taking a boat tour along the volcanic coastline, discovering hidden coves and snorkeling in the clear waters. The natural hot springs along the coast were a highlight for us – there’s nothing like soaking in warm water with the ocean right next to you. São Miguel is a place of wild beauty, and every day felt like an adventure.
