About
Mini-Mar in Faial occupies a spot on R. Manuel da Silva Leal 8 in Coronel 9900-451, within the island's network of small settlements. The venue holds a 3.9 out of 5 rating from 430 reviews, a substantial body of feedback for a place of its kind on Faial. Horta, Cedros, Feteira, Capelo, Praia do Norte and the Caldeira all sit within reach of the island's roads.
With 430 reviews behind a 3.9 out of 5 rating, Mini-Mar has drawn steady attention from people travelling around Faial. The venue's position near Coronel puts it in the quieter interior of the island, away from the main harbour at Horta. Visitors heading for the Caldeira or the coast at Praia do Norte pass through this part of Faial.
First-time visitors should expect a low-key stop in a small island settlement rather than a large commercial hub. The 3.9 out of 5 rating from 430 reviews gives a fair sense of how it is received. Portuguese is the main language, spoken with distinctive island accents and local words.
Showers and wind can arrive quickly at any time of year on Faial, so a waterproof layer is worth carrying. Limpets, tuna, grilled fish and caldeirada fish stews are common on island tables, and most islands make their own cheese. Sperm whales, dolphins and Cory's shearwater are seen on whale-watching trips from several ports.
