L\u2019avis de la team Shelltone<\/h2>\n

L\u2019\u00eele de Pico occupe une place unique dans l\u2019histoire de la relation entre les hommes et les c\u00e9tac\u00e9s. Au c\u0153ur de l\u2019Atlantique Nord, ses eaux profondes accueillent une extraordinaire diversit\u00e9 de baleines, de dauphins et d\u2019autres esp\u00e8ces marines, faisant des A\u00e7ores l\u2019un des grands territoires mondiaux de l\u2019observation des c\u00e9tac\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Jusqu\u2019\u00e0 vingt-sept esp\u00e8ces peuvent \u00eatre rencontr\u00e9es au fil des saisons. Cachalots, baleines \u00e0 bosse, rorquals, dauphins, tortues marines et oiseaux oc\u00e9aniques \u00e9voluent dans un environnement o\u00f9 la richesse biologique de l\u2019Atlantique s\u2019exprime pleinement.<\/p>\n

Nous avons s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9 cette team pour la qualit\u00e9 de son accompagnement et pour une approche qui s\u2019appuie sur une tradition profond\u00e9ment ancr\u00e9e dans l\u2019histoire de Pico. Les sorties sont guid\u00e9es par une \u00e9quipe de biologistes marins, de skippers exp\u00e9riment\u00e9s et par les \u00ab Vigias \u00bb, observateurs install\u00e9s \u00e0 terre qui rep\u00e8rent aujourd\u2019hui les c\u00e9tac\u00e9s afin de permettre leur observation dans le respect de leur comportement naturel.<\/p>\n

Au-del\u00e0 des rencontres avec les animaux, cette exp\u00e9rience permet de d\u00e9couvrir un territoire o\u00f9 un m\u00eame regard port\u00e9 vers l\u2019oc\u00e9an a chang\u00e9 de sens au fil du temps. L\u00e0 o\u00f9 les baleines \u00e9taient autrefois recherch\u00e9es pour \u00eatre chass\u00e9es, elles sont d\u00e9sormais observ\u00e9es pour \u00eatre mieux connues, comprises et prot\u00e9g\u00e9es.<\/p>\n

Chaque op\u00e9rateur pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 ici a \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9 parce qu'il respecte la Charte Shelltone.<\/p>\n

\u2060Les c\u00e9tac\u00e9s ne sont jamais approch\u00e9s \u00e0 plus de 5 n\u0153uds.<\/strong>
Les animaux sont approch\u00e9s toujours selon un angle qui accompagne leur direction de d\u00e9placement, plut\u00f4t que de leur couper la route<\/strong>
Les m\u00e8res accompagn\u00e9es de leurs petits ne sont jamais approch\u00e9es.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ces principes constituent le fondement de la Charte Shelltone. Notre s\u00e9lection prend \u00e9galement en compte l'attitude g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de l'op\u00e9rateur, la qualit\u00e9 des explications fournies aux passagers ainsi que sa capacit\u00e9 \u00e0 reconna\u00eetre que, dans certaines situations, la d\u00e9cision la plus respectueuse consiste \u00e0 ne pas approcher les animaux.<\/p>\n

Ce ne sont pas des recommandations. Ce sont les conditions selon lesquelles chaque Shelltone Selected Operator est choisi.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

L\u2019histoire d\u2019un territoire qui a transform\u00e9 son regard sur les baleines. Une destination qui rappelle que notre relation avec le vivant peut \u00e9voluer, et que comprendre peut un jour remplacer conqu\u00e9rir.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

RESPECTFUL WHALE WATCHING FROM PICO (AZORES)<\/h1>\n[themify_layout_part id=\"8399\"]\n

The Shelltone Team's Review<\/h2>

Pico Island holds a unique place in the history of the relationship between people and whales. In the heart of the North Atlantic, its deep waters are home to an extraordinary diversity of whales, dolphins, and other marine species, making the Azores one of the world's great whale watching destinations.<\/p>

As many as twenty-seven cetacean species can be encountered throughout the year. Sperm whales, humpback whales, fin whales, dolphins, sea turtles, and seabirds all thrive in an environment where the biological richness of the Atlantic is fully expressed.<\/p>

We selected this team for the quality of the experience they provide and for an approach rooted in Pico's long maritime tradition. Their trips are led by a team of marine biologists, experienced skippers, and the island's \"Vigias\"\u2014shore-based lookouts who now locate whales to help ensure they can be observed with respect for their natural behavior.<\/p>

Beyond encounters with marine wildlife, these excursions offer the opportunity to discover a place where the way people look at the ocean has profoundly changed over time. Where whales were once sought to be hunted, they are now sought to be understood, appreciated, and protected.<\/p>

[themify_layout_part id=\"12078\"]<\/p>

What We Particularly Appreciate Here<\/h2>

The story of a place that transformed the way it looks at whales. A destination that reminds us that our relationship with the living world can evolve, and that understanding can one day replace conquest.<\/p>\n
