It takes a while to compile all my clips into the finished video. But uploading doesn't take long, I have an extremely fast connection.
I was born in Ponta Delgada
Live in the USA for 31 yrs.
Had been there many times , never tired of this beautiful island.
It did change alot , but nice 🍷💕
i left from there 42 years a go ,i miss you Ponta Delgada ,i cry so many times
Thats makes sense then ~ having a very fast connection is key. Keep up the great job. Enjoy watching your videos and appreciate all the time you put into them! :-)
great job...loved the scenery....now planning the trip
I agree whole heartily!
Bathtub ocean temperatures combined with the most abundance of marine mammal species on Earth - in total peaceful atmosphere.
Another wonderful video....thanks again for sharing Sir!
Bravo! Very well done and I enjoyed every minute. We sailed on the Grand in the West Caribbean, but we lived in the Azores on the island of Terceira in the mid to late 70's. We visited Porta del Garda with my folks in 1977 when it had only one stop light! They also had no tour buses. We saw all the sights you saw from a rental car. There was absolutely no tourist accommodations to speak of outside of the city. What a thrill to see this. Thank you!
Thank you for this video. I was born in the Azores (Pico) came to the USA when I was ten years old. Watching this video really makes me want to go back and visit. I'm almost 53 years old, and I hope that I can go before I die.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing! A coworker and I will be doing a transatlantic repositioning cruise on NCL Star Miami-Delgada-London-Helsingborg-Copenhagen May 2014. I am really excited about the Azores stopover!
It is probablu unlike to find so many beatiful scenery in such a small place. God is our friend.Very nice video.
Deve ser um dia muito abençoado
actually this place is exactly as the video shows. Trust me, I live there.
José Albano Silva there’s no god & in 2018 it’s just ridiculous to still believe a book that was written by people who knew nothing about anything. How can people believe a bloody story full of hilarious contradictions and fairytales?! Enough people have died because of the 3 Arabic religions. Time to wake up!
Thanks for the ride. Very nice video and very interesting
Fantastic videography !
The end results of your videos are superb !
I'm going there januari 2013 for 1 week.
Still have to do some planning on what to do.
Thank you for the preview!
What a great video. I am going to Ponta Dolgada on 31 March 2014 from the Azura and really looking forward to it now. Hope the weather is as good. What a fabulous sunset you had!
You didn't see the very best of it. To all of you thinking about going there note this places:
- Mosteiros (go there in the summer)
- Rabo de Peixe (It's a fishing village, there are really poor children in the streets, it's also know for the accent, it has the most ununderstanding accent in the intire Portuguese Language)
- Furnas (it's above a vulcano, you can cook inside the hot gases and waters and you see the gases going out and stuff like that)
- Furnas Lagoon (you'll see why) and also Lagoon of Fire
- Stay a night in Ponta Delgada, go to the Gates of the Sea (Portas do Mar) it's really lively and it will be a nice night because you can eat or drink by the ocean
- Go to Caldeira Velha, and take a bath there
- Go to the Ilhéu de Vila Franca, search for it ''Ilheu de vila franca 2014'' it's different now, probably the pics arent updated it's a lot better now
You will not regret, believe me.
Search for these places on google, and see their beauty
And warning: In the summer is much better!
I am very fortunate to live in sao miguel, the biggest island of azores. No place like home
Fantastic, many thanks!!!!
thanks so much for your uploaded video it was well presented. I spent 2 short days on 2 occasions in the early 1980's on the island of Terciera when on my way to Germany for a military exercise and would love to live here , if only for a short period of time , to experience island living.
want to visit PONTA DELGADA as soon as posible,GREAT VIDEO..
A small glimpse of a very beautiful island. Minimum 3 weeks to get to see & experience it all.
My lovely home i will never forget you i miss you so much the beauty of my home land makes me cry i wish i never left sao miguel i love you
I was there on December 2012 and adored my viset. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. FYI...there is so much more to Sao Miguel/ St. Michael than you see here. So much beauty, I hope the "tour" got a chance to see it; this does not pay it justice. That was a beautiful sunset! Happy travels! Title should read "My day in Sao Miguel, Azores. Ponta Delgada is a beautiful city. Thanks!
you have given me the courage to delve into this retiring to the azores, I haven't done anything different in my life, but I want to go to the azores, then my life will be complete.
1st who are the 42 clowns that don’t like this, what’s wrong with you?? Anyway it’s sooo nice not having to listen to loud music or endless narration. It’s really refreshing to hear the natural sounds of the environment. I also love how smooth the video is. Great job. I gotta say I’m seriously jealous of you!!
beautiful islands, next week I will be there!
Let us know if you need any travel tips, @holografe ;)
***** I just need one thing, I want to see dolphins and whales, but is not included in trip
Which island will you stay? :)
***** Islands of são miguel, Faial, pico and terceira
Well, that's a big ride :) You have great whale watching companies in all of those Islands. The best way to choose a provider would be looking at this website and looking at the many companies that provide the service:
www.visitazores.com/en/experience-the-azores/whale
Each company is different, but we would suggest Picos de Aventura in São Miguel, Talassa in Pico, Norberto Diver in Faial and Ocean Emotion in Terceira. However, all providers can offer a great experience, so that's entirely up to you ;) Please do stop by one of our Hotels or Restaurants to enjoy the local cuisine ;)
São Miguel Island where I was is a beautiful island. Not sure I would pick these islands as a stand alone destination. But it was a very nice stop on my cruise and I enjoyed my day there very much. There are 8 other islands that I didn't see. I was there in November, so it was too cold for the beach, so I can't comment on those.
What a beautiful film! It was very well edited and I enjoyed every second of it. We were there on 4th November 2012, just a couple of days before you and I did the same tour - we went to the Antonio Borges gardens first (I was surprised to find the gardens were right in the middle of the town!), then we went to Sete Cidades, then finally we went to the Pineapple Plantation. We didn't have bad weather, it was lovely. In fact I will be back in Ponta Delgada next week, on my way to the Caribbean again, and I'm really looking forward to it :)
I'm go there to ,the most Beautifull island in the world
I recommend you visiting it. Very beautyfull place, with lots to see, make sure that if you visit Azores, come to São Miguel, but go and see the other islands as well, there are ferrys that make the connetion between them, so it's a case of planning your hollidays well.
fantastic thanks
Other than wow I just don’t know what to say?! You’re very lucky to be there.
I wish I were here,for my birthday...
Adoreu este video ,Obrigado...
my little island need to go back one day
documentario maravilhoso. muitos parabens
very beautiful,nature if you want is there and I know there is more so much more to it.I I believe a cruise leaves you stuck to a few place to see ,it's great but if you know people as I do and go to the secret spots wowww,you don't want to leave the secretive green isl.
The video was awesome great job!!!!!xo Peace.Paz e Amor***az
very interesting！
Simplesmente maravilhoso
Muy instructivo!
So sad that you didn't meet Furnas village, was one of the most beautifull places in the island.
Excellent video... plan to look at your others now. However in this Ponta Delgada clip, you mention a "Jardim Francisco Borges da Silva" park (which park is in Tenerife, Canary island) The park in Ponta Delgada is called "Jardim Antonio Borges" (I know both name differences, and have been to both parks, due to my family having come from the island of Tenerife!)
wonderful!!
You should go!! Just make sure you go for no less than 2 weeks! Also, make it a point to check out some of the other island while you are there! You wont regret it! :) My family is from the Azores also :)
This is great footage, did you hear anything about whale watching while you wer there?
thank you!
Um dia em Ponta Delgada bem passado.
witch what camera did you filmed?panasonic, sony, which model?thank you
FANTASTICO.....
Nice video, but... you didn't see everything. And there is a lot of funtastic places to see. Like furnas and termal baths...
he only had one day. he was taking a tour of the Atlantic.
Great video thanks for taking the time to share with us ,, ( are you canadian ?? )
sorry for asking
what an answere.. :DD
if you go there in the summer its much better
Great footage - enjoyed it. Does it take you ages to upload onto youtube?
Nice video
That guide is awful lol the islands are a stand alone destination to a 15 days trip in the Summer, you have so much to do there... If you're into festivals, hiking, scubadiving, to relax on the beach... That's why they're considered the 2nd best islands vacations destination ;D
Fala serio portugal pode ate nao ter muitos atrativos mas acores tira o folego do sul do brasil sou do parana onde esta as quedas de foz do iguacu lindissima mas tiro p chapeu pro acores
could i be your assistant?
to alexander cabral, can you tell me if I could retire over there on $1,700.00 a month? My grandparents were from panta del garda sao Miguel. What do they use for money, what apartments go for, etc. Thank you so much, Caroline Sousa
On $1,700.00 ( I am assuming USD, so its a bit over 1.300€) you'll almost have trouble spending all your money! Given the minimum wage in Portugal is about 625USD, your budget is perfectly fine. Even if you include a rent or mortgage loan, life isn't as expensive as one would think and that amount seems more than enough.
Unless you plan to live in a hotel and/or eat out every single meal, you can have a pretty luxurious retirement there.
Cheers
to rrdsilva, thank you so much for that information You are the one and only person that sent me this valuable information, I want to live there so bad, you are a life saver, thank you again for responding.
Caroline Sousa
I'm afraid I haven't done much for you nor I will be able to. The trickiest part will be getting a settling place, and before that you need to get a visa (I will asume the fact your grandparents were Portuguese ins't enough for you to have multiple citizenship).
I have no idea how that legal part is done, but maybe start by going to the nearest portuguese embassy and ask about (they are usually helpfull).
Maybe your best first step would be a visit to check out if you really enjoy the azores and some real estates (so you can understand the figures).
I'm afraid this is as far as I can help. Best of lucks.
Cheers
Caroline Sousa i can also tell you that the azores is much cheaper than the mainland Portugal, so, with 1,700USD per month you will have absolutely no problem whatsoever... and its not "porta del garda", its Ponta Delgada. Hope i helped you
thank you so much, I was so happy when I read your note, you don't know how happy I am. I want to go there, what if I moved there and just have my suitcase in hand plus 1,70 in my hand, what do I do, live in a hotel until I find an apartment
all cruise ships are arguably the most boring places on earth for wealthy American docs and retirees --- unless the weather gets stormy
A volcanic island in the middle of the ocean. Can the volcano explode again?
No, I do not think. Where will the people run when the volcano erupts?
Frequent frequent earthquakes! You may not have a chance to escape.
Everything is very expensive. It's not a place to live.
Because you're a pussy
