Description
Admire the island from a unique perspective during the golden hour, contemplating the coastal beauty, full of promontories and coastal caves to explore, filled with incredible colors and energies.
Enjoy a peaceful 2-hour boat tour along the stunning north coast of São Miguel, designed to help you slow down and connect with nature.
Starting in the fishing village of Rabo de Peixe, we pass by the beaches of Ribeira Grande and head to the historic port of Santa Iria, where we pause to enjoy the views — and if the sea allows, you can take a refreshing swim and toast to the moment.
We sail along impressive volcanic cliffs and caves at Ponta do Cintrão and Ponta do Ermo, lit by the warm colors of the sunset. Along the way, you may spot local seabirds and enjoy the magic of the golden hour.
We work with small groups, keep the atmosphere quiet and natural, and offer local tea and biscuits on board for a warm Azorean touch.
The tour ends with a serene ride across open sea, offering a breathtaking view of the island bathed in evening light.
