About

A day dedicated to the sea and its wonders, where you'll be able to observe the wild life that abounds in the outskirts of the azorean shores.

This tour is divided through the day, increasing the chances of spotting more and different species, and most important, to have a better picture of the different behaviors of the animals throughout the day.

• Starting the first tour at 09:00am and ending around 11:30pm

• Second tour at 14:30pm and ending around 17:00pm

• 3 hour break for lunch, leisure and relaxation. We recommend going to the beach or natural pools of Mosteiros!

Highlights

At Mosteiros we are privileged by our location, at the west part of the island we find refuge, relaxation, peace from all the noise from traffic and city lights, as do the whales, turtles, dolphins and fish we find out here. There are more than 25 cetacean species that you can observe out here. The Azorean whale's migration route is a good indicator that you'll surely see whales around here, but we believe that there are some resident specimens around the area, especially sperm whales, throughout the whole year. It's truly life abundant. You will also have the chance to pass by the iconic islets of Mosteiros and glance the amazing coastline that this bay has.

What You Can Expect

The experience starts at our office in Mosteiros fishing port! After check-in, you will be given:

• Life vest
• Waterproof light jacket (if necessary)
• Briefing by our guide and biologist about what you can expect to see and about our safety procedures
• Informations about the sighted animals
• Photos shared (whenever possible)

After that we'll head out to the boat, then we will head out to the positions given by our whale spotter at land. Back on land we'll head back to our office where and share with you some additional info about the animals that we saw on the trip.

Please remember that the animals are in their home, wandering in the great Atlantic ocean and because of that the sighting of cetacean is not guaranteed.
