Discover Pico Island through volcanic landscapes, coastal viewpoints and places known to locals who live here year-round. A stop at a traditional vigia offers a glimpse into the island’s whaling past and its deep connection with the ocean.
This tour blends iconic sites with lesser-known areas, offering a grounded and authentic perspective of the island.
A full-day guided tour to Faial Island, including the dramatic Capelinhos Volcano and panoramic viewpoints across the Atlantic.
We depart from Pico by morning ferry and return in the late afternoon. Transport is provided throughout the island in a private van.
Faial’s volcanic history and crater landscapes make it one of the most geologically unique islands in the Azores.
As the sun begins to set over Pico Island, thousands of Cory’s Shearwaters return from the open Atlantic to their nesting sites along the cliffs.
These migratory seabirds spend the day far offshore and gather at dusk, filling the air with one of the most distinctive and haunting sounds of the Azores. For many visitors, their calls feel almost otherworldly: a powerful reminder of the island’s wild character.
Cory’s Shearwaters (Calonectris borealis) arrive in the Azores during the warmer months to breed, laying a single egg each season. They are a protected species and an important part of the region’s natural heritage.
This evening tour begins approximately 10 minutes before sunset to witness the main arrival spectacle.
A quiet and atmospheric experience shaped entirely by nature and timing.
