Cruise Description
Visiting mainland Portugal and the remote islands of the Azores, this cruise will present you with fascinating nature and history in equal measure. The Azores boasts diverse landscapes, from the Sete Cidades crater lakes to scenes of blue hydrangeas – we've even timed your visit for when the national flower is in bloom. In addition, the archipelago's waters are home to marine life such as sperm whales, which you can spot from Borealis assisted by conservationists from wildlife charity, ORCA. UNESCO-listed Angra do Heroísmo – reached from Praia da Vitória – and Lisbon are ideal for learning about Portugal's maritime history, while in Madeira you can explore the botanical gardens with a local orchid expert.
