Walks and Whales in the Azores 8 days
from £1495 excl. flights* The Portuguese Azores Islands are situated in the Atlantic Ocean about half-way between Lisbon and New York. These nine islands are lush and volcanic, and where rural life is still fairly simple with twice as many cows as inhabitants. Our one-week easy walking and whale watching holiday here takes us onto four of these Azorean Islands. Having arrived into Ponta Delgada on San Miguel we have a short flight to Faial Island. Here we enjoy our first walk, a short 2-3 hours to the lighthouse at Ponta Capelinhos. Moving by boat onto our next island '“ Sao Jorge we walk along the coast from Faja dos Vimes to Sao Joao with stunning ocean views through lush and gnarly forest on the steep sides of this fabulously volcanic terrain. In the centre of the island we walk through the wild blue hydrangeas up to a viewpoint of the caldera, a cauldron like crater formed by the collapse of an emptied magma chamber. With lakes and sweeping views of the surrounding islands it's a beautiful, still and impressive place. The Azores is known to be one of the best whale and dolphin watching areas in the world '“ so we include a whale-watching boat trip, which we do from Pico Island. A magnificent experience. Back on land we have the option of a long, hard days walk to highest summit Mount Pico (2351m), this brings our holiday on these splendid islands to a close. With low-cost airlines flying direct from the UK, this is the prefect get-a-way for those looking for a week away from the bustle of busy-life and enjoying the outdoors, walking and the marine life. |
