Scuba diving in the Azores: an oasis of marine life

Sitting in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean are the nine islands of the Azores and a sea of emotions waiting to be discovered. From scuba diving in crystal clear waters with the world's largest fish species (the whale shark) to finding yourself surrounded by dozens of Chilean devil rays and fast-moving blue sharks, anything is possible in this oasis of marine life.

You can go scuba diving on all of the islands in the archipelago. Thanks to their location in the middle of the North Atlantic, in an area of transition for nutrient-rich streams from the north and the warm waters of the Gulf Stream, these islands are a true sanctuary for an abundant variety of marine species. Blessed with a rich and unique marine biodiversity, the waters of the Azores are the habitat of five species of sea turtles, more than 28 species of cetaceans and nearly 600 fish species, including large deep sea shoals, several shark species, giant manta rays, Chilean devil rays and friendly groupers.

A surfing paradise all year round

Surfing in the Azores

 

The geographical location of the archipelago makes the Azores an excellent spot for lovers of wave sports. Thanks to the morphology of the different islands, you can practise surfing, bodyboarding, SUP and windsurfing in a variety of contexts, beach breaks, reef breaks and point breaks.

In winter there are strong swells from north generated near Newfoundland and constant depressions and cold fronts that pass north of the archipelago.

The summer months are dominated by waves from the south generated by tropical storms that pass south of the islands, with some waves created by the depressions that form between South Africa and Antarctica also reaching the Azores after crossing more than 11,000 km. These waves are known among the locals as "inchas" or "August tides".

Whale watching

Whale watching in the Azores

 

The Azores are currently one of the world's largest whale sanctuaries. Among resident and migrant species, common and rare, more than 28 different types of cetaceans can be spotted here. That's a third of the total number of whale species!

With so many species in the waters of the archipelago, whales can be spotted all year round. Whales and dolphins are sighted on 98% of trips out to sea, whatever the time of year. As well as resident communities like bottlenose dolphins, which you can swim with, there are whales that pass through the Azores on their migratory route. Spotted dolphins are common during the summer, while blue wales can easily be spotted at the end of winter. Sperm whales, sei whales and bearded whales are frequent in the summer.

Senderos de las Azores

Trails in the Azores

The Azores boast a wide network of trails classified by the archipelago's regional government to ensure safety and peace of mind for hikers. For centuries, the easiest way to get around the Azores was by sea, even on the same island, because there weren't many paths and hardly any of them were suitable for carriages and ox-drawn carts. The islanders would use these paths to visit nearby villages for local festivities and to barter farm products, fish, coal and other goods. That network of paths has now been recovered so that everyone can enjoy the wonderful landscape of the Azores. The trails run by the sea and over the hills, passing through areas of outstanding beauty and connecting nearly every inch of each island.
