he Azores islands are located on the nexus of the European, American and African tectonic plates and they bear witness to the forces forever shaping our planet. This is a world of fumaroles, mudpots and scalding springs; of caverns, columns and grottoes formed from once-molten rock; of blue lakes ringed by forests of laurel and cedar, of vast underwater mountains and green pastures patterning the slopes of calderas. It is hard to imagine a better place for nature lovers, fans of adventure sports or anyone looking for a beacon of sustainability.
Walking is one of the best ways to explore the Azores! Visit the island from a different perspective: the adventure is guaranteed! All paths lead to the most incredible and emblematic places. Take a trip to whale & Dolphin watching. Discover the Azores sea, see it’s wildlife, and enjoy the green island.
The Azores are synonymous with marine biodiversity with unparalleled riches anywhere in the world.
Thanks to the archipelago’s volcanic origin, its deep waters close to the coast and the Gulf Stream, going out to sea becomes a journey full of surprises and encounters with the many species of our waters.
A beacon of nature, adventure and sustainability
