Horta Marina

Horta Marina on Faial Island is one of the fourth most visited ocean marinas in the world, and its mid-Atlantic position has made it a legendary waypoint for transatlantic crossings for centuries. With space for 300 vessels, it's a proper hub of nautical life — you'll find fuel, provisions, and repair services alongside the famous painted murals left by crews from around the globe. The energy here is unlike any other port, and the waterfront cafés and views of Pico volcano right across the channel make lingering on shore just as appealing as being at sea.
