Bed and breakfast accommodation on Faial, the Azores

Sailing around Faial and the Azores

Sailing in the Azores is a true adventure!

Faial located at a couple of hours sailing distance from Sao Jorge and Pico, is a good startpoint for discoveries.

The summer winds are stable and the sea friendly with its dolphins, whales and turtles just a few miles off shore.

Stopping at anchorages near the coastline, at natural pools to swim or sun bathe increase the pleasure.

For sail fanatics we offer different options according as the customers' wishes.

Daytrips: (10 a.m.- 5 p.m.) including lunch and drinks is only 75 Euros per person. A minimum of 2 persons is required.


Faial is perfect for sailing holidays, our pictures below show sailing between Faial and Pico, the Regatta from the tradional baleiros in Horta and Horta Marina at night.

Tradition has that sailors crossing the Atlantic should draw a painting on the harbour wall at Horta to bring them luck with their crossing. Here is a small selection but the harbour is filled with paintings and one of the sights not to be missed on Faiail.
