Full-day watching tour with lunch and snorkeling at the Princess Ring
Join a full-day tour on a traditional fishing boat and enjoy exploring the volcanic islet of Vila Franca do Campo, admiring the whales and the dolphins, having some local food for lunch in a typical restaurant, and snorkeling.
After meeting at the Marina for checking-in, your experience will start with a short introduction about the cetaceans, some other local species, behavioral patterns and onboard safety. At this point you'll be ready to leave for a watching tour of approximately 3 hours around the islet. Once the tour will be ended, you'll return to the Marina to enjoy your lunch at a close seafront restaurant. After lunch, you'll meet again at the Marina to get your snorkeling equipment, board on a converted old fishing boat and reach the Princess Ring, a perfect spot where to do some snorkeling or simply swimming. You'll also be given some free time to explore the islet by yourself.
There will be a boat bringing you back from the islet to the Marina every hour until 5.30pm, be sure not to miss it!
