The deep waters around the island are in particular very deep. This condition makes the Sperm Whales to come near the seashores, normally in big social activity groups. Delivered to them selves the Whales spend much time at the surface. With out any annoying element of the environment, the Sperm Whales take a relative approximation of our boats. In any case, FUTURISMO - Whale Watching, follows strict rules of approximation on the cetaceans, preserving distances and keeping noise levels in the norms. Our behavior and our sensibility as taken us to a co-operation very straight with the University of Azores developing a program to evaluate the impact of the vessel on the observation of the Whales and Dolphins. One attitude already recognized of a good collaboration between the scientific community and the Whale Watching operators.

Besides the Sperm Whale other species are sighted. The Pilot Whale is frequently observed. Swim in groups alternated with some resting periods above the water. Docile, pleasant, curious, the Pilot Whales, when they want, let some daring.

Operating on the North coast (Capelas) and in the south of São Miguel (Ponta Delgada), with two inflatable boats and a sail boat, FUTURISMO-Whale Watching proportionates one vast offer to let the maximum of opportunities to the observation of cetaceans. In Land, we have five search towers that guarantees one cover of almost all the island. This search towers have been rebuild or rehabilitated following the tradition.
