What to expect

Meet us at the Marina de Vila Franca do Campo for check-in at the specified time.

The adventure begins with an informative briefing covering Vila Franca do Campo Islet's captivating geology, living Fauna and Flora, details about the Protected Nature Reserve, and boat safety.

Follow your guide and skipper to your designated boat for a swift 5-minute journey across the channel to the Princess Ring, and enjoy a boat exploration around Vila Franca do Campo's Islet.

Witness its dramatic volcanic landscape and observe the season's thriving marine ecosystem — a haven for various bird species, vibrant fish, and even elusive Lightfoot Crabs! The Islet is particularly lively in between Fall and Spring!

This stunning relic of an oceanic volcanic cone, shaped by Atlantic's forces, is not only a sanctuary for life but also deeply woven into the history of Vila Franca do Campo. Your guide will enrich your experience with captivating narratives and be on hand to answer any queries.

Conclude your tour with a scenic return to the Marina.
