Can we fly direct at Easter for our whale-watching trip?
The Independent
|August 23, 2025
We want to go to the Azores (specifically Ponta Delgada) at Easter 2026 to go whale watching. We are struggling to find direct flights from the UK.
Q Are there any yet to be announced? We are based in Leeds but happy to drive south.
Steve D
A Ponta Delgada presides over the island of Sao Miguel - and is the capital of the Azores, the magical Atlantic archipelago about 1,000 miles west of mainland Portugal. You can go one better than whale watching: swimming with the cetaceans in the ocean, on a professionally organised excursion. The city is an excellent base for a whole range of adventures, including cycling, hiking and some natural spa options.
