About Kayak Azores
Welcome aboard!
Kayak Azores Adventure invites you to discover the Atlantic Ocean through the Azorean eyes in Vila Franca do Campo in São Miguel island.
Our passion for the sea and for nautical activities dates back to our grandparents’ time and has been passed on from generation to generation. Because we grew up in tune with the sea, in 2020 we embarked on a sea and land adventure, creating Kayak Azores Adventure.
Over the years we acquired an unique boat that allows to sea the bottom of the sea, the only one in Azores and the second in Portugal.
We also offer other sea-related activities through our sister company – OceanEye Azores. You can visit them on www.oceaneyeazores.pt.
We can’t wait to see you aboard!

What our guests say about our experiences
Nikola Toth2025-06-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole tour a great adventure. Snorkeling gear was included, which was a nice bonus. Although we couldn’t set foot on Ilhéu de Vila Franca do Campo due to conservation efforts, the experience of seeing it up close was still absolutely worth it. I’d 100% recommend this trip to anyone wanting a closer look at the island and a fun day out on the water. Ivo Belfo2025-06-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
