What you can expect

Set sail on a boutique sailing charter from the iconic Marina da Horta, on Faial Island. Enjoy an immersive ocean experience throughout the Central Group of the Azores (Faial, Pico, and São Jorge).

Combine adventure, comfort, and authentic island culture, always guided by an experienced skipper who knows the region intimately.

Choose from a range of options, including a 6-day/5-night sailing journey through some of the most stunning and biodiverse waters of the Atlantic. These expeditions include coastal sailing, snorkeling, wildlife encounters, scenic anchorages, island visits, and the freedom to explore remote bays and volcanic coastlines accessible only by boat.

Opt for a 2-day private charter, a short but unforgettable escape, ideal for couples, families, or small groups wanting a private overnight sailing experience. Alternatively, enjoy a full-day sailing tour, a full day at sea exploring the Faial–Pico channel, swimming, snorkeling, and enjoying the dramatic landscapes of the Azores.

For a more relaxed introduction to sailing and the marine life of the region, perfect for guests with limited time, choose a half-day sailing tour.

All experiences are operated aboard a classic Jeanneau Sun Legend 41 ft sailing yacht, offering comfort, safety, and an authentic sailing atmosphere. Group sizes are intentionally small to ensure a personalized and intimate experience.
