About Tour Guide Ester S.
Hello and welcome! I'm your guide here on the beautiful island of São Miguel in the Azores. Based in the small fishing village of Rabo de Peixe, I specialize in boat tours that blend adventure, nature, and authentic local culture.
Together, we’ll explore the rugged northern coastline aboard a powerful, high-speed vessel—cruising past dramatic cliffs, hidden waterfalls, and the lush tea plantations of Porto Formoso. If we head west, we’ll navigate around volcanic rock formations like the iconic "Elephant Trunk," uncover secret coves, and take in some of the most breathtaking coastal views the island has to offer.
For those looking for something even more immersive, I also offer traditional fishing experiences. Step aboard a classic local fishing boat and spend time with a seasoned fisherman, learning the old ways of the sea that still shape daily life here.
My goal is to take you beyond the usual tourist path. I want to show you parts of the island that few get to see—raw, real, and filled with stories. From historical landmarks to natural wonders, from local legends to marine life, I bring both passion and knowledge to each trip.
The Azores are my home, and sharing them is what I love most. Whether you're here to capture stunning photos, discover new perspectives, or simply enjoy the salty breeze and ocean air, you're in for an unforgettable experience.
So, let’s set off together on a journey that’s equal parts excitement, beauty, and connection—with nature, the ocean, and the true spirit of this island.

My story begins in the heart of a secluded paradise, where the waves kiss the shore and the horizon stretches endlessly. I started exploring this Archipelago at a very young age, hiking the most mysterious trails and surfing the wildest waves. When I turn 16, I stole my father's dive mask and became fascinated with the underwater world of these islands. After high school, I traveled across Europe to experience different cultures and broaden my horizons. But the call of home was too strong. I returned to the land where I grew up to start my own company, dedicated to showing travelers the true, hidden magic of these islands * All my tours can be customized upon request.
