Hop on a boat at Pico Island, starting with a briefing presentation at Rua dos Baleeiros 15, then set off with a professional crew to explore waters that teem with dolphins. The Azores archipelago is home to more than 20 different species of cetaceans, and using the local knowledge of the onboard crew, you'll increase your chances of seeing some. The experience includes a 3-hour cruise to spot marine life.

Since 1989, Espaço Talassa has been the first whale watching company in the Azores - founded by a French sailor and a former Azorean whaling family, rooted in the very history of these waters. We locate cetaceans using the same traditional vigia lookout towers that once guided the whale hunters of Lajes do Pico, combined with onboard hydrophones. Your marine biologists share genuine knowledge of the species, their behavior, and the ocean they inhabit. Small groups, unhurried time at sea, and a deep respect for the animals and the place. This is not a show - it is an encounter. Nature-first, always.

A cultural experience dedicated to the whale history of Pico Island. During the tour, we will learn about the memory of the ancient whale boats, the importance of whale for the local community and the deep connection between the Pico and the sea. We visit spaces linked to this tradition, discover real stories of courage and work in the ocean and live a special moment aboard a whaling boat, a traditional boat used by ancient whalers. An authentic, cultural and exciting experience, ideal for those who want to better understand the maritime identity of the island and the lives of the people who have been part of this history.
