Azores
Day 1-2
The Azores is one of the world’s best destinations to see whales and dolphins. Year-round, we encounter our resident sperm whales and several dolphin species, as well as turtles and seabirds. From March to June, it is possible to see migratory whales, including the two largest species – blue whale and fin whale. We also have some lucky years where we can even spot some rare species such as orcas, beaked whales and false killer whales.

Ponta Delgada
Day 2-6
Every whale and dolphin-watching tour is unique, we never know what species we will see. The tour starts from Ponta Delgada harbor (either 08h30 or 13h00). In the beginning, our marine biologists will do a briefing about the species that you might see during the tour. They will also talk about the whale-watching rules we have to respect while approaching a cetacean for the animals’ well-being. After the briefing, we are ready to go on an offshore adventure. Nature offers no guarantees, it sometimes happens that we don’t see anything. But no worries, in case you don’t see any cetaceans, you will be able to book another tour for free with us on another day!

Ponta Delgada
Day 6-7
Today we will depart on the ultimate experience: swimming with wild dolphins in the clear blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean, off the Azorean coast. Hearing the dolphins and swimming with them in their natural habitat is a unique experience, full of emotions. We will go out on a zodiac boat in small groups. Our marine biologists will be guiding you along this amazing experience: they will do a briefing with all the information on how to enter the water and how you should behave in the open ocean during the tour. The wetsuits, in order to stay warm, are included. You must be comfortable with the idea of swimming in open waters to be able to participate in this experience.
