Respectful whale watching from Pico (Azores)
We are a global environmental organization dedicated to the protection of cetaceans through the listing of eco-responsible and respectful whale watching bases.
Increase your chances of spotting cetaceans with non-aggressive approaches by marine biologists and naturalists.
Unstressed animals are easier to observe, in a calm and respectful atmosphere.
By observing whales and dolphins with operators approved by Shelltone Whale Project, you are helping to protect them at no extra cost to you.
The Shelltone team's opinion
Set off on an unforgettable adventure in the heart of the North Atlantic, from Lajes do Pico, and discover up to 27 different species of cetaceans! Majestic whales, playful dolphins, seabirds, turtles and fish await you in their natural habitat.
For around 3 hours, you'll be accompanied by a passionate team of experienced skippers, marine biologists and a «Vigia» (shore observer), who will guide you through a unique experience of marine wildlife observation and exploration of the south coast of the island of Pico.
The cetacean enthusiasts selected by the Shelltone team in Pico have chosen the RESPECT.
