Visit Azores identifies regional flights and boats for travel between islands. Search the actual date and airport or port; connections vary.
Make your visit work
- Leave room for a changed connection; confirm every leg with its operator.
Start with a real arrival point
Each island has a named airport or airfield; some also have more than one ferry port in the operator’s search. Record the exact airport or port before choosing accommodation and onward transport.
Allow for an island change
Search the date and island pair separately with SATA for air and Atlânticoline for sea. A route shown on a map is not a sailing or seat on your date. Keep a margin before an international departure.
The first local leg
Check whether a local bus has a named stop at your arrival point and at your destination. If that link is not verified, arrange a taxi or pickup rather than assuming the island’s town is a walk from the airport.
