Description

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the port in Vila Franca do Campo, and from there, we'll begin this unforgettable glass-bottom boat tour. All aboard!

Over the course of 2 hours, we'll sail around the island and, thanks to its glass floor, we'll be able to see a great variety of sea life that inhabit the waters around the Azores. Stay on your toes, as we'll see loads of colourful fish, crustaceans and seaweed.

In addition, to make the experience even more fun, we'll make a short stop so that you can take a dip and practice some snorkelling. This way you'll be able to see the fish up close! However, if you'd prefer to stay on deck, you'll be able to admire the spectacular panoramic views of the southern coast of São Miguel.

After this, we'll bring this tour to an end back at the starting point.
