Getting around by boat and ferry São Roque Do Pico

From São Roque, you can reach Velas, on São Jorge, all year round with Atlanticoline ferries (green and orange lines). From June to September, the company also operates direct services between São Roque and Horta on Faial (white line). To reach the other islands from São Roque, you'll need to make at least one stopover. There are more departures from Madalena, Pico's other ferry terminal. In bad weather, ferries may be cancelled. An option worth considering for those with the time and inclination to travel differently...
