Activity description
Haliotis Faial will take you out to the best scuba diving spots around the island. You can choose amongst 8 of the popular sites that can be accessed by boat.
Lying in the Atlantic Ocean about 1500km from Lisbon, Faial is a small volcanic island with a surface area of 173km2 and is less than 1 million years old.
The island is verdant and tranquil, with beautiful landscapes and an incredible blue ocean with prolific marine life. Far from the touristic masses the island is a calm and peaceful spot – perfect for those of you looking to explore the wild undisturbed beauty of the ocean. Faial is known as the Blue Island because of its abundant blue hydrangeas that bloom in summer.
You will complete one dive in the morning and one dive in the afternoon with a state certified instructor.
In between the 2 dives Haliotis will provide you with refreshments.
Both dives: full 12L cylinders and weights included
You can either opt for the excursion alone without equipment (you can bring your own) or you can go for an excursion with all rented equipment included.
