About

Portuguese is the main language, spoken with distinctive island accents and local words, so a few phrases help at the counter. Whale-watching trips from several ports bring sightings of sperm whales, dolphins and Cory's shearwater, a reminder of the whaling years that lasted until the 1980s and whose boats and lookout posts are kept in island museums. Carnival, religious processions and bull-running on a rope also shape the island calendar, so a quick grocery stop can fit around a festival day.
