Seeing pods of wild dolphins swimming in the sea, and a whale! Eating a meek that had been cooked underground by the heat of a volcano! Kayaking on the huge lakes.

We had a really magical time! It made such a difference to have it all organised and it really was a perfect package for us Including fun family activities like kayaking & cycling, dolphin watching, swimming and soaking up the culture and wonderful local cuisine We loved Antillia for a family stay and how close it was to the marina and the shops/cafes etc, while still feeling very tranquil.Robert Jacobs review 29 May 2023

So many great experiences… we saw 6 species of whale / dolphin and the boat trips were amazing. The inland tours were also fantastic with breathtaking scenery and oh, the food… and the wine from Pico….!!!!2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Book the tour to Furnas and also visit the botanical gardens in Ponta Delgado. The cafe at Jardim Borges is amazing. The whale watching trips are responsibly run and different every day / morning / afternoon.3.
