What you can expect

As many as 25 cetacean species inhabit the waters just off the southern coast of Ponta Delgada, and this activity gives you the opportunity to marvel at them in their natural environment. Pair this experience with a jeep tour of the Lagoa do Fogo for a day of exploration you won't soon forget.

Make your way to the Futurismo Activity Centre and meet a friendly marine biologist who gives you a briefing about the kinds of wildlife you can expect to see during your experience.

Board the boat and settle in for the journey out to the gentle sea just south of the island, where you drift peacefully through crystalline waters in search of whales and dolphins. Watch as these majestic creatures flap their fins and poke their heads up, marvelling at their size and beauty. After your cruise, dock at a nearby port, disembark the vessel, and head to a local restaurant for a delicious lunch.

After lunch, embark on a jeep tour that takes you to the beautiful Lagoa do Fogo, located at the centre of the island. Enjoy nature at its absolute best as you cruise over highlands and flatlands, marvelling at the island's lush vegetation and sweeping vistas. At the lake, ascend to the top of the crater's rim for astonishing views of the entire landscape.

Finally, take a drive to Caldeira Velha, a waterfall with turquoise, iron-rich water cascading down vibrantly coloured rocks and foliage.
