Beskrivelse
Biolog-Guided Experience - Vores ture er altid ledsaget af professionelle marine biologer, der giver live kommentar, arteridentifikation, og fascinerende indsigt i hvalens adfærd og marine bevarelse. Landbaserede udkig (Vigias) – Vi bruger traditionelle udkigspunkter på land for at spotte hvaler og delfiner, før båden forlader marinaen. Denne lokale metode øger dramatisk vores chancer for vellykkede observationer. Etisk Wildlife Observation – På Picos de Aventura prioriterer vi respektfulde og ikke-invasive tilgange til dyreliv, der sikrer, at vores møder ikke forstyrrer dyrene eller deres naturlige adfærd. Scenic Azorean Backdrop – Den dramatiske kystlinje i São Miguel og det dybe blå Atlanterhav skaber en fantastisk indstilling til dit eventyr. Komfort og valg – Uanset om du foretrækker adrenalinet fra en stiv opblæsbar speedbåd eller stabiliteten fra en katamaran, tilbyder vi forskellige fartøjer, der passer til dit komfortniveau og eventyrstil.

10/10 would recommend. For reference, I am a young woman who likes to solo travel. I was debating between the fast boats or the catamaran and wasn't sure if I made the right decision, as people were saying the speed boats allow you to see more and feel closer to the animals and that the catamaran is crowded. But that wasn't my experience, though each trip is entirely different as it all depends on what the animals want to grace us with. But my group was honored to see a Sperm Whale, a large group of Spotted Atlantic dolphins, a small group of common dolphins, three men of war, and about 6 flying fish (don't take your eyes off the water if you want to catch them). I wasn't seasick at all it wasn't a windy day so the water was nice at still at 9:00am, I always had a good view and both sets of dolphins swam right beside the boat following us (like 1m away) it was magical. They even took us to the Island of Vila Franco since we were so good on time. There is a bathroom on board. They say you can't go if you have high anxiety (in their list of not pregnant, no heart problems, etc. ) which I thought was weird but I'm assuming they mean a fear of boats, water, swimming, animals, etc. not sure, I'd recommend they be more specific as someone with general anxiety would be just fine (me :) ). They must have had a bad experience in the past. Thank you, Team! God bless!
There was a real effort to spot as many animals as possible. We have seen 2 species of dolphins and sailed a long way to get to a whale. Unfortunately, it had just gone under again. We were only back in port at 12.30pm, so they really took their time for the best results. Friendly staff and good organization! We did another tour at the same organization and that was great too!
Great experience! First outing made under complex weather conditions for observing cetaceans. The team offered us to reschedule an outing, and following that, we were able to observe several groups of dolphins and whales of different species. An agency that respects animals and their well-being. A big shoutout to Fernanda and Magi.
Too many people got seasick. Take Dramamine or Bonine and don’t eat before the trip unless you’re a seasoned sailor. Your fellow passengers will be grateful. It was a puke fest. Nothing against the company- they are in open waters with swells. The crew were very kind and helpful. We did see Sei whales and dolphins. That said, it’s not enjoyable when everyone around you is getting sick. But if you really want to see whales in the wild, you’ve got a great chance here.
It was fun!! Saw 4 different species which include sperm whales! Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate about the ocean and its creatures. We had great weather but would advise a warm jacket for sure as it gets chilly on the open water with the speed of the boat.
Be warned! - If you are prone to motion sickness, I would say to skip this experience. It will not be fun for you! We also didn’t see anything at all. The upside : staff were very kind - They did the best they could to help with participants who got sea-sick.
Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to learn that sea conditions were not great when you joined us. We strive to provide all of our guests with an enjoyable experience, but sometimes rapid changes in sea conditions can be troublesome. It is important to note that as a part of our sighting policy, if we did in fact not spot any animals you are entitled to a full-refund.
Great trip Very well organised with safety briefing before hand We saw whales and dolphins definitely consider this if you are travelling to the Azores
We booked this whale-watching tour for three couples. Unfortunately, our first scheduled trip was cancelled due to bad weather. Naturally, we were disappointed, but we completely understood that safety must come first. We were immediately informed that we would receive a full refund, and indeed the company handled the situation promptly and professionally, which deserves special recognition. Two days later, we decided to try again, and this time the tour went ahead as planned. To the company's credit, they make it very clear before departure that sightings cannot be guaranteed and that a successful trip depends, to a certain extent, on luck and on the animals being in the area. In our case, we had hoped to be luckier. During more than three hours at sea, the only wildlife we managed to see was a few orcas. While seeing orcas was certainly interesting, we had expected a richer experience. Therefore, anyone considering booking this tour should be aware that, despite the best efforts of the crew, it is entirely possible that during the entire trip you may see very little—or even nothing at all. Having said that, I would still recommend not missing this experience. Being out on the open ocean, searching for these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat, is worthwhile in itself. Hopefully, future visitors will have even better luck than we did
Top experience at picos de aventura. There are biologists on board who provide enough explanation and distance from the animal. It remains a must to respect the animals in their habitat and not cause stress. We saw two species of whales and two species of dolphins. So grateful for this experience!!
Was able to see 3 different whale species and 4 whales total. Got a good shot of whale tail right when one dove. Unique and cool experience overall. Do not expect to get right up close to the whales. But with good eyesight you’ll be able to get a nice view
