Excursión de snorkel en el islote de Vila Franca do Campo
Descripción
Descubre la magia del islote de Vila Franca do Campo desde una perspectiva completamente diferente: ¡bajo el agua! Tras una breve sesión informativa y la entrega de todo el equipo necesario. Equipado con traje de neopreno, máscara y aletas, embárquese en una excursión al islote mientras su guía comparte información de seguridad y datos interesantes sobre este emblemático monumento natural de las Azores. El snorkel se practica en las aguas que rodean el islote (en su zona exterior), donde se pueden explorar aguas cristalinas, formaciones rocosas volcánicas y una increíble diversidad de vida marina, que incluye peces de colores, estrellas de mar, cangrejos, morenas y pulpos. La actividad no se desarrolla dentro de la reserva natural del islote, sino en sus alrededores. Para una experiencia aún más emocionante, puedes optar por alquilar un SeaScooter. Por último, disfrute de un breve paseo en barco alrededor del islote antes de regresar al puerto deportivo: una experiencia inolvidable que combina mar, naturaleza y descubrimiento.

What a wonderful experience, tons of marine life to witness and all the staff was very friendly and helpful
Enjoyable excursion to start the day - when you arrive get into wetsuit & hop on a 6 seater boat to the snorkel site. You jump off the side & stay in one area which was good - several varieties of fish in nice clear water. You are not really guided per se so expect to explore on your own but felt safe as the guide kept us together & answered any questions we had. The water was pretty cold so an hour for the experience was just perfect. The tour ended with a ride around the island.
Such a fantastic trip, the guides were really fun - they made the boat trip, and the snorkelling was brilliant. So many fish swimming against the rocks and the water is really clear. Would highly recommend.
Everything was great, highly recommended!
A fantastic experience from start to finish. The snorkeling excursion was very well organized; we saw a large number of fish and at all times we felt safe and well accompanied. We want to especially highlight Ricardo, the instructor, for his professionalism, patience, and approachability. We also want to thank the boat crew member, who turned the return trip into an unforgettable moment. He made the return trip so much fun that we ended the excursion with a grin from ear to ear. A team of 10 that makes a difference. Without a doubt, a totally recommended excursion. If we return, we will repeat with them. Thank you very much for an unforgettable experience!
The whole experience was great. Our guide, Pedro, was fantastic. He went out of his way to find fish and point them out to us. He keg everyone takes their time to have a good experience. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested.
Great experience! Our guides were fantastic. Highly recommended
The snorkeling takes place around the island, not inside as the photo suggests. They leave you next to a side of the island to practice the activity and return you within a margin of about 30 meters. Personally, it was not to my liking, as the marine life was quite limited and in a more turbulent environment, since we were exposed to the currents.
Hola, Roberto, gracias por haber escrito una reseña sobre nuestra excursión. Lamentamos que algunas cosas no salieran bien, pero me gustaría aclarar algunos puntos. La excursión que reservaste no menciona en ningún momento que la actividad se realice en el interior del cráter, sobre todo porque ningún operador con sede en Vila Franca y sus alrededores lo permite. Las fotos que has visto en este paquete fueron tomadas todas en el exterior del islote de Vila Franca do Campo por uno de nuestros guías acompañado de nuestros clientes. Debido a las condiciones meteorológicas, lamentamos lo ocurrido. En situaciones como estas, es importante hablar con la tripulación, que estaría más que dispuesta a ayudarte. La seguridad y la comodidad de nuestros clientes son nuestra prioridad. Espero que en el futuro vuelvas a hacer esta excursión con nosotros y que vuelvas siempre :)
We had a great time snorkeling! The captain took time trying to find the right spot and we were able to watch dolphins swimming by (from the boat!), he took us all around finding the best spots to see wildlife and snorkeling was great as well. We had a nervous snorkeler in our group and the captain and the guide talked them through the whole process. Would definitely recommend!
Everything was excellent. If I could give it 6 stars, I would. We went on a Zodiac, piloted by Dominic, who gave us a mini tour around the outer perimeter of the island, entering a cave with the boat. There were only 2 of us for the activity. Our guide was Pedro, who accompanied us and showed us black morays, starfish, groupers, seahorses, etc. You cannot enter the inner lagoon of the islet of Vila Franca. The activity is highly recommended.
