Boat Tours

An oasis on water, the magnificent drawing of the green coastline, the basaltic caves, lava flows, and calm bays will parade before your eyes. A world of peace, a horizon of possibilities, and sea mist where time flies and leaves us stuck in a moment of pure joy.

Boat Tours Boat Tours

Enjoy the beauty of the infinite blue Atlantic Ocean

From lush green vegetation to a great variety of wildlife, enjoy heaven after a long ramble with otherworldly vistas.
Enjoy your holidays in the Azores walking through the beautiful landscapes of volcanic origin. Breathe fresh air and contemplate all the diversity of fauna and flora you will find.
You can start the day feeling the nature among mountains, enjoy more than one lagoon on the island of São Miguel, and finally, to end the day in a perfect way, take a boat trip to see the sunset.
