The waters around Pico Island have been offering some beautiful encounters lately. 🐋

Over the past few days, we've been lucky to encounter a wonderful variety of marine life: S***m Whales, Sei Whales, Common Dolphins, Bottlenose Dolphins, Striped Dolphins, sea turtles, and even the fascinating Portuguese Man o' War drifting across the deep blue.
Every trip is different, every sighting is unique, and every moment reminds us just how special the waters around the Azores truly are.🩵

A big thank you to everyone who has joined us on board to share these unforgettable moments. We look forward to discovering what the ocean has in store for us next! 🌊

📍 Pico Island, Azores – where every whale watching trip is a new adventure.

Recent trips at sea have been filled with wonderful encounters with the Azorean marine life around Pico Island.🐋

We enjoyed lovely encounters with Risso’s dolphins, especially a well-known pod that includes an individual missing its dorsal fin.🐬

S***m whales are also frequently spotted in the area. We have observed clusters of females as well as young males, allowing us to witness their impressive flukes as they dive back into the depths for another feeding dive.🦑🐙
We also witnessed a loggerhead turtle attacking a Portuguese man o’ war! Swimming just beneath the surface towards the siphonophore, the turtle approached its prey, which was unable to swim away, and quickly swallowed it. Some of the sticky, stinging tentacles were left floating in the water, while others remained attached to the turtle’s face and flippers. Fortunately, sea turtles are not sensitive to the powerful nematocysts of the Portuguese man o’ war.

Would you like to join the next adventure? Send us a WhatsApp message at +351 926 919 645 to book your seat and discover the amazing Azorean marine life with us!
