Whale Watching + Cabras Islets
Description
At 8:30 am, we'll meet at the marina of Angra do Heroísmo, where the boat that'll take us to explore the south coast of Terceira will be waiting for us.
We'll sail the Atlantic in search of the whales and dolphins that inhabit these waters. You'll be surprised by the size of these massive animals and you'll love their 'singing'. As we admire the whales, we'll tell you many interesting facts about them - did you know that some species can live up to 200 years? Or that they can even mimic the human voice?
What's more, during the cruise, we'll also be able to spot several families of dolphins. So get your cameras ready!
After three hours of sailing, we'll reach land again. We'll go to a restaurant where we'll enjoy a delicious lunch consisting of a traditional Portuguese dish and a drink.
At 2 pm, we'll board the boat once more to go to the Cabras islets, which were declared a Special Protection Area. We'll sail around these volcanic islands and spot the many birds that nest here. You'll love it!
Lastly, we'll end the tour back at the starting point at 3:30 pm.
