CRUISING THE WORLD: HORTA, Fayal Island


The Fayal and Pico islands in the Azores are just a piece of paradise one should not miss. And there is no better way to arrive at the Azores than by sea on a ship. The Atlantic ocean is at its best there and then there is the Pico vulcano always present and this surrounded by 360 degrees of beauty. 

On one of my many visits I recorded a great moment and light shared in the two photographs, taken on 26 September 2006, the first at the commercial dock entrance, the second at nearby Porto Pim looking East.
