South Sao Miguel Cruise
Description
Have fun in the Atlantic waters of the Azores, cruising along the south coast of Sao Miguel with this boat trip from Ponta Delgada. Are you ready to set sail?
Cruise from Ponta Delgada
Once we've met at Avenida João Bosco Mota Amaral, we'll head to the nearby port of Ponta Delgada to set sail on board our boat.
Sailing alongside the southern coast of the island of Sao Miguel, we'll reach a private beach, where we'll drop anchor for a while, giving you free time to take a dip. You can even have a go at watersports such as snorkelling or jet skiing!
After our first stop, we'll set sail again towards the town of Vila Franca do Campo. Here we'll cruise around the famous islet just off the coast, which is a volcanic crater with a thriving ecosystem, housing diverse animal species and an abundance of birds.
From this islet, known as the "o Ilhéu”, we'll head back to the port of Ponta Delgada. We'll finish the tour after 3-3.5 hours of exploration.
