Fajã dos Padres Swim Half Tour

This experience begins with a striking descent of three hundred meters in a cable car that travels almost vertically down to the fajã. During the four minute journey you are treated to sweeping views of a towering cliff and the untouched landscape below. Once you step out, a peaceful walk leads you through small plantations, banana trees, vineyards and traditional stone houses on the way to a remote pebble beach. The sea here is exceptionally clear, revealing the ocean floor even before you enter the water. A small pier provides gentle access to the calm shoreline where your guided swimming session begins.

As you move through the water, you are surrounded by a setting of pure natural beauty. The wild scenery, the stillness of the coast and the immersive energy of the ocean create a deeply relaxing atmosphere. After the swim, the serenity of this hidden corner of the island invites you to slow down, explore the surroundings or simply enjoy the peaceful environment that makes this place feel like a secluded paradise.
