Marine Birdwatching Expedition

Prepare for this marine wildlife expedition where you will explore hidden places and observe coastal colonies. Look for the season's birds and capture their wild behavior out at sea, with incredible ocean views!
Start the day off with a short informative briefing that will introduce you to the bird species that can be observed locally, their migratory and behavioral patterns, and receive onboard safety information.
Travel along the coast to observe the known coastal colonies, shorebirds, and life at the islet of Vila Franca do Campo, and then head out to sea looking to find seabirds and capture wild animal behavior.
The lookouts high inland help locate the wildlife friends and provide directions via VHF Radio to where the boat may travel initially at high speed. While carefully approaching the undetected viewing distance of the birds, your guide will keep you informed, while collecting field imagery and data for Cornell's Lab of Ornithology international database.
Marine birds can be observed yearlong, peaking in abundance in Spring and Autumn with the arrival of migratory species and rare vagrants.
Duration: 3 hours
