2,5 Hr – Private Sailing Tour (PM) on June 19, 2025
Une offre parfaite pour personnaliser un voyage en mer. Un bateau tres comfortable, un capitaine qui connaît la navigation et les acores. Équipage : souriant et attentionné : leur presence est agréable. Je recommande fortement. La chance qu’on a eu d’apercevoir une baleine au loin ! Le meilleur moment de nos vacances !

Merci beaucoup, Karine. C’était vraiment un plaisir de vous montrer la côte de São Miguel et de partager la sensation de la voile. On a bien hâte de vous revoir à bord 😉. À bientôt sur l'eau
