São Miguel: Excursión en Barco por Cuevas y Acantilados
Descripción
Salida desde Rabo de Peixe, uno de los puertos pesqueros más auténticos de las Azores, para disfrutar de 2 horas explorando una costa a la que solo se puede acceder por mar. Durante el recorrido, se pasan acantilados volcánicos imponentes, cuevas escondidas y formaciones rocosas a las que no llega ninguna carretera ni sendero. La primera parada es el Areal de Santa Bárbara, la playa de surf más conocida de las Azores, vista desde una perspectiva completamente diferente: el mar. Más adelante, comienzan a aparecer cuevas ocultas formadas en la roca volcánica. Cuando el mar lo permite, se entra en su interior, un momento que siempre sorprende. La tripulación conoce cada rincón al detalle. La Roca del Cura, la Roca del Indio… formaciones que emergen directamente del océano, cada una con su propia historia. Se llega hasta Porto Formoso antes de iniciar el regreso. Al final de la experiencia, se descubre un lado de São Miguel que la mayoría de las personas nunca llega a ver.

Interesting to see the landscape from the water and we got to see flying fish, Portuguese man o wars, and dolphins! It was A fun morning!
The experience was amazing. The staff was attentive to the details and very polite. The views that we could see were amazing.
Overall excellent experience. Nice dry ride. Great pics of the caves and coastline. Couple dings because the 2 hr trip was an hour and 40 minutes and there was no meeting instruction other than an address to a huge marina. “Look for the Expedition office” would make it easy to find.
We had an awesome time! Very fun and kind crew, knowledgeable and patient. Highly recommend.
The tour was outstanding, informative and such gorgeous cliffs! My gps had some trouble getting me there but a local man hopped in my car for the last few blocks to show me the way. The tour manager was excellent as were the captain and the guide.
Thank you so so much Noreen, and for coming back a second time, that truly means everything to us! We're so glad the cliffs didn't disappoint, and we love that a local jumped in to help you find us, that's the Azores spirit right there. Hope to have you on board for a third time someday!
Great experience! We had such an amazing time. The staff is soooo friendly friendly and attentive. We also learned a lot about the island.
Thank you so much Marie! So happy you had an amazing time, comments like yours make it all worth it. Hope to see you back in São Miguel someday!
We didn’t book with this company initially but I’m so glad we got bumped over to them due to lack of enrollment for our initial tour. AG Expeditions had a fantastic price, the nicest, most helpful employees, and knowledgeable friendly guides and captain. I will be recommending this tour with AG to friends who are going to Sao Miguel in August!
Thank you so so much Christine! Sometimes the best discoveries happen by chance, so glad you ended up with us. It was a pleasure having you on board and we hope to see you back in São Miguel someday!
Had a awesome experience! The staff is really friendly and fun. Totally worth the price paid for it!
Thank you so so much Marie! So glad you had a fantastic time with us, hope to see you back on the water someday!
We had an amazing boat tour along the coastline and caves of São Miguel in the Azores. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with stunning rock formations, beautiful caves, and incredible views of the island from the water. A special thank you to Captain Natalia, who was fantastic throughout the trip. She was professional, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel safe and comfortable while navigating the coastline. Our guide and host, Diago, made the experience even more memorable. He was fun, engaging, and entertaining, sharing interesting information about the area while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. The combination of spectacular scenery, excellent organization, and a wonderful crew made this one of the highlights of our visit to São Miguel. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the beauty of the Azores from the sea!
Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! This truly means the world to us, reviews like yours remind us exactly why we do what we do. Captain Natalia and Diogo are an incredible duo and it warms our hearts to know they made such a difference to your experience. This is exactly the kind of tour we strive to deliver every single day! Thank you for recommending us, it means everything. Hope to have you back on board someday!
If you fancy spending a couple have hours learning about the island whilst on a rip speed boat then this is for you. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The crew were fantastic, even when he dropped his hat into the sea, so we got an impromptu 360 spin in the boat. The scenery was amazing and the skills of the captain the get us up close and personal was fantastic. I’d highly recommend this trip.
Thank you so much! So happy you had such a wonderful time with us, seeing São Miguel from the water really is something else, and we're so glad the crew made it extra special. We'd love to have you back on board anytime!
