Description

Experience the thrill of whale watching off the stunning coast of São Miguel, Azores, as you set out on a guided cruise led by a knowledgeable marine biologist. This half-day adventure departs from Ponta Delgada, offering you the chance to witness whales and dolphins in their natural environment.

Before heading out, meet your friendly crew for a safety briefing and slip on your life vest. The team uses advanced binoculars and lookout points along the coastline to maximize your chances of spotting ocean giants, boasting an impressive 98% success rate for sightings.

As you cruise the crystalline waters, marvel at the sight of majestic whales and playful dolphins, always respecting their space. Multiple groups of these incredible animals are often seen during the trip, making each outing unique and memorable.

On your return journey to the marina, enjoy breathtaking views of São Miguel’s dramatic geological formations as your boat glides close to the island’s rugged coastline. The tour includes your guide, crew, life jacket, and raincoat for comfort and safety.

Tours are available in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, with departures from Ponta Delgada and, on select days, from Rabo do Peixe. In the rare event no whales or dolphins are seen, you can rebook for free or receive a full refund. Secure your spot now for an unforgettable encounter with the Azores’ marine life!
