Informações gerais

The islands of the Azores are shaped by the peaks of the Mid-Atlantic ridge, surrounded by the endless Deep Blue.

The archipelago forms a meeting place for rich marine life.
Deep-sea currents transport nutrient-rich water from the depth. Microbes thrive and the food pyramid explodes. Therefore, whales, dolphins, sharks, turtles, mobula rays and pelagic fish are abundant in these waters.

The Azores have been renowned for years as a top destination for whale and dolphin watching, as up to 27 species (approximately 25% of the world's known species) have been identified off the coast. The Islands provide a natural sanctuary in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean for both migrating and resident species. Sperm whales are the most commonly sighted whale species off the Azores and can be seen all year round.
Apart from viewing whales and dolphins, the islands have only recently been discovered for excellent diving and encounters with sharks also.
Pico Sport Lda. has been offering whale and dolphin watching from Pico Island since 1996. Join us and discover for yourself what the Azores have to offer! You will not be disappointed.
