Unforgettable visit to one of the most beautiful places on the island. The guide gave several details in his explanation and nature emerges in all its splendor. It's worth it.

Great boat trip

Very pleasant trip. Our guide, Gui, was very friendly and had extensive knowledge of the island. Due to the good weather we were able to swim in the open sea which was wonderful. Essential point of any trip to Terceira Island.

Beautiful views of the island

A magical experience riding to and through the “goat islands”. We had a whole pod of dolphins surfing the waves next to us on the way out and even though it was a windy day we all day a great time. My 4 year old even fell asleep towards the end she was so relaxed. Kind and knowledgeable tour guide and captain. Would recommend for all ages to see a different view of the island and learn about the history of the beautiful isle.
