Wonderful Experience!

Published on Sep, 2024

The guides were amazing and you could tell they had a lot of experience. They will do what they can to give you a great chance at seeing the dolphins up close in the water while also respecting the dolphins and making sure they are not stressed.

Amazing Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience

Published on Sep, 2024

We got taken out and dropped off in among the dolphins. It was a fantastic experience, and the whole thing felt completely safe and comfortable. Would definitely do it again!

Incredible Dolphin Swim Experience with Picos de Aventura!

Published on Aug, 2024

My fiancé and I had the most amazing time swimming with dolphins off the coast of São Miguel with Picos de Aventura! Our guide Antonio and captain Miguel were outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about what they do. We were thrilled to encounter three different species of dolphins: spotted, bottlenose, and common. Swimming alongside these magnificent creatures was an unforgettable experience! If you're looking for an incredible adventure in the Azores, I highly recommend Picos de Aventura. It was truly a dream come true!

Really awesome.

Really awesome. Great captain and really knowledgeable guide. My wife loved it. You just need to be aware that this is swimming in the ocean but it is very safe. Captain and guide incredible.

Once in a Lifetime Experience!!

Published on Aug, 2024

Wow!! What an Adventure, and with the Best Tour Guides! Monize Silveira did an amazing job. We felt safe, and well taken care of during the entire tour. This was an amazing tour. I would highly recommend if you are visiting Ponta Delgada. The guides were very knowledgeable and professional. There were 10 people in our group, and everyone was able to swim with wild dolphins at least twice! And... we even had the opportunity to swim with a whale shark. This was a Once in a Lifetime experience!!
