We were lucky enough to go on a catamaran trip to see dolphins around São Miguel, and we loved it. Seeing these magnificent animals in their natural environment was truly exceptional. The crew was very friendly, professional, and attentive, providing plenty of information throughout the excursion. We particularly appreciated their respectful approach to the animals and the fact that the experience was primarily about discovering marine wildlife. The catamaran was very comfortable, and we were also able to fully enjoy the scenery and the beauty of the ocean. We were accompanied by our 6-month-old baby, and everything went very smoothly. The crew was attentive, and we felt comfortable throughout the entire trip. We 100% recommend this activity if you're visiting São Miguel! A wonderful way to discover the island from a different perspective and leave with incredible memories. (Original) Une expérience absolument magique et inoubliable ! Nous avons eu la chance de partir en catamaran à la découverte des dauphins autour de São Miguel et nous avons adoré cette sortie. Voir ces magnifiques animaux évoluer dans leur environnement naturel était un moment vraiment exceptionnel. L’équipage était très sympathique, professionnel et à l’écoute, avec de nombreuses explications tout au long de l’excursion. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié l’approche respectueuse des animaux et le fait que l’expérience reste avant tout une découverte de la faune marine. Le catamaran était très agréable et nous avons également pu profiter pleinement des paysages et de la beauté de l’océan. Nous étions accompagnés de notre bébé de 6 mois et tout s’est très bien passé. L’équipage a été attentionné et nous nous sommes sentis à l’aise pendant toute la sortie. Une activité que nous recommandons à 100 % si vous êtes de passage à São Miguel ! Une très belle façon de découvrir l’île autrement et de repartir avec des souvenirs incroyables. Read more

I would like to highlight the attention, concern, and constant care of the entire crew — especially one of the sailors, who was always attentive and ready to give us the best tips to enjoy the marine spectacle. This time, for professional reasons, I accompanied a user in a wheelchair. During the trip, due to the unexpected rocking of the boat, we experienced a small scare while trying to keep the chair balanced. Fortunately, it was just a minor incident without any consequences, and I want to make it clear that the crew had no responsibility for what happened — on the contrary, they were tireless, helpful, and extremely quick to support us, and for this they have my deepest gratitude. However, this episode made me reflect on accessibility on board. Since the catamaran is a boat that welcomes passengers with reduced mobility, I believe it would be a great asset to have dedicated areas and appropriate fastening/safety mechanisms for wheelchairs (even locked ones), ideally in a location with good visibility of the sea. If it is already difficult for anyone to maintain balance during a stronger wave, managing a wheelchair becomes an even greater challenge. I leave this note with the purely constructive intention of helping you make your service, which is already excellent, even safer and more inclusive. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the commitment and dedication that provided us with a memorable day. Until next time! Best regards, Cláudio Dias (Original) Estimada equipa, Esta foi a terceira vez que recorri aos vossos serviços e, mais uma vez, a experiência foi incrível. Destaco a atenção, a preocupação e o cuidado constante de toda a tripulação — em especial de um dos marinheiros, que esteve sempre atento e pronto a dar-nos as melhores dicas para desfrutarmos do espetáculo marinho. Desta vez, por motivos profissionais, acompanhei um utente em cadeira de rodas. Durante a viagem, devido ao balanço inesperado do barco, vivemos um pequeno sobressalto ao tentar manter a cadeira equilibrada. Felizmente, não passou de um susto sem qualquer consequência e quero deixar bem claro que a tripulação não teve qualquer responsabilidade no sucedido — pelo contrário, foram incansáveis, prestáveis e extremamente céleres a apoiar-nos e nisto têm o meu profundo agradecimento. No entanto, este episódio fez-me refletir sobre a acessibilidade a bordo. Sendo o catamarã um barco que acolhe passageiros com mobilidade reduzida, creio que seria uma grande mais-valia contar com zonas dedicadas e mecanismos de fixação/segurança próprios para cadeiras de rodas (mesmo travadas), idealmente num local com boa visibilidade para o mar. Se para qualquer pessoa já é difícil manter o equilíbrio durante uma vaga mais forte, a gerir uma cadeira de rodas torna-se um desafio ainda maior. Deixo esta nota com o intuito puramente construtivo de vos ajudar a tornar o vosso serviço, que já é excelente, ainda mais seguro e inclusivo. Agradeço do fundo do coração todo o empenho e dedicação que nos proporcionaram um dia memorável. Até à próxima! Com os melhores cumprimentos, Cláudio Dias Read more

It’s impressive that we haven’t found anybody during our walking tour. It was amazing the communion with nature. It feels that nature is still untouched.
