With São Jorge, the greenest island of the Azores is waiting for us. It impresses with cliffs, cliffs, lush hills and Fajãs, the fertile plains that have formed at the foot of the cliffs, where people have settled and villages have emerged over time.

Whale watching was on the program for today and at the same time our last day. It took some time before we were able to spot and see a small group of whales in the open sea.
