Additional Notes

Lying in the middle of the Atlantic ocean, more than 1000km west of Portugal, the Azores comprise an archipelago of nine islands.
They represent the emerging peaks of a huge submarine mountain chain known as the 'Mid-Atlantic Ridge' that divides the entire length of the ocean from North to South. 

Bathed in the warm waters of the Gulf stream the islands unique landscape, nature and rich marine life are tightly connected to their origin and geographic location. 

For all those seeking close encounters with whales, swims with dolphins, great adventures, scuba diving and fun snorkelling the incredibly abundant marine life will not disappoint.
