"Breaching Humpback. There are no words to describe the feeling of seeing such a majestic animal completely out of the water. This image and the sound of a 30 tons’ whale hitting on the water next to me… It gives me goosebumps." Inês.

This friendly Humpback is around the South of Pico since around two weeks, come and check it by yourself!

“Meet the Guests”

For the last 2 weeks we had a special guest, Sophie Riehm, 32, from Germany, that was happy to answer our questions!

- What brings you to Pico and to Lajes do Pico? Is it your first time?

Its not my first time, it’s my second time. Two years ago I was searching about Azores and where to go whale watching and looking for a company that was respectful with the animals and I found you. And I enjoyed so much the first time that I had to come back!

- Have you been WW before? Where? Differences?

Yes, I went whale watching in Madeira, S. Miguel, Canary Islands and in mainland as well. And yes, I see differences. Before I was on big boats, I really like that here with you it’s small boats, and also you explain so many things about the animals and of course the respect, the distance we keep and I love that when you see that the animal it’s not comfortable with the boat, you just leave the animal alone. And you also pick up trash, I love that.

- What was your favorite of the Azorean species?

Very difficult question. I love all! For me, last time it was the s***m whale because I saw them in every trip and also the Killer Whales, but this time it’s the Humpbacks! I had so many special moments with them!

- Is there a species that you would like to see here?

I would love to see the Killer Whales again but I’m happy about everything that I see!

-What were the highlights of the trips for you?

It’s hard to tell because I had so many highlights, so many that every time I was thinking that it couldn’t get better. But the first very special moment was the breaching S***m Whale and of course the breaching Humpback Whale, and today the feeding Humpback Whale showing up with the mouth open!

Thank you Sophie, it’s amazing to have you around! Hope to see you next year!
