The Island Passage - 5 to 7 days
From São Miguel to Santa Maria—experience the Azores the way few ever do, by sea
Service Description
A 5–7 day sailing journey through the open Atlantic, designed for those who want to slow down, disconnect, and experience the Azores from a completely different perspective. Departing from São Miguel and sailing toward Santa Maria, The Island Passage takes you beyond day sailing and into the rhythm of life at sea. Cross open blue water between islands, experience the magic of night sailing under star-filled skies, and discover secluded anchorages only accessible by boat. In Santa Maria, explore calm bays and the island’s famous white sand beaches—a rare treasure in the Azores and even more special when reached by sea. This journey is relaxed, flexible, and shaped by weather, sea, and mood. Your skipper and crew take care of everything, allowing you to simply arrive, unwind, and enjoy the experience. And if curiosity strikes, you’re always welcome to take the helm and become part of the adventure. **What’s Included** Included in your booking is exclusive use of the boat for up to 6 guests, ensuring a private and comfortable experience. Also included are a welcome drink (beer or soft drink), snacks (local Azorean treats), water, fuel, skipper service, and all taxes and fees. For multi-day charters, meals and restaurant arrangements are not included and must be pre-arranged in advance
