Atlantic Ocean Expedition

Trip Snapshot

The Azores are blessed with whales and dolphins throughout the year. Some of these beautiful creatures make our islands their home. Others pass by on their migration routes, stopping to feed on the abundance these deep channels provide. But there are also a few different resident species, possible to watch all year long. You’re likely to spot sperm whales, common dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, and Risso’s dolphins. Would you like to see the largest whales on the planet? Then join us in the Spring – from March to June – when the giants pass through our waters. We’ll be exploring for the great fin, blue, and Sei whales as they visit the Azores on their migration journey. This is a package for those who want to observe and get to know more about the Ocean's giants! The Azores are one of the Worlds best places for Whale and Dolphin watching due to it's remote location. In general, each day whale and dolphin watching in the Azores is completely different from the last. So why not try to spend as much time on the water as you can during your visit? This package includes four whale and dolphin watching experiences and the chance of swimming with wild dolphins on their natural habitat. The accommodation will be at a hostel on a single room basis. Transfers from/to airport are also included.
