Description

Whaler Lookout Vigia Baleeira da Furada is a historic whale watching post on the island of São Miguel in the Azores.

This distinctive white circular building with a horizontal observation hole was once used to look out for whales while hunting. Today, it offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and surrounding islands.

It is an ideal spot for maritime history buffs and landscape photographers. The spot is part of a network of similar sites scattered around the Azores, testifying to the region's rich whaling heritage.
