During this activity you will have the opportunity to observe whales and dolphins (cetaceans) in their natural habitat. The main whale watching season on the island of Faial runs from April to October. You can go on a whale watching tour regardless of age and physical state, everyone is welcome! If you have any conditions that require special assistance, prior notice is required. We work with the traditional lookouts (dating back to the whaling era) located on the islands of Faial and Pico. Each day, they search for whales to ensure that you can successfully observe the cetaceans on every trip. The only thing we can’t guarantee is the weather conditions that sometimes prevent us from going to sea, so it’s best to book your trip in advance so we can choose the best day.
