Azores4Fun is a company created in 2011 to carry out maritime tourism activities, based in the city of Horta, island of Faial, Autonomous Region of the Azores.

For 8 years, Azores4Fun focused its action on diversifying the existing tourist offer in the Azores, investing in a portfolio of innovative products and services, which allowed its customers to enjoy nautical activities and experiences on board a sailboat, which ranged from a simple overnight stay on board, on multi-day inter-island cruises, including short trips through the channels of the Triangle Islands and participation in regattas.

In 2017, Azores4Fun acquired a Toyota BJ40, from the 70s, for recovery and future use for transfers from its customers as well as off-road tours in what is one of the most classic and emblematic vehicles in this category.

In 2019, “Casa da Travessa” opened, in a building in the heart of the city of Horta, consisting of two apartments with a total capacity for 15 people, as well as deciding to expand its activity to other maritime and nature activities, thus advancing with the purchase of 3 Kart Cross (Buggys), kayaks and inflatable SUP boards and snorkeling equipment.

In 2021, it invested in PaintBall material and created a field for that purpose from scratch, with trenches, obstacles, bases and a briefing and assistance area. With a field created for this purpose, Azores4Fun provides unique conditions for this strategy game in physical and real mode.

One of Azores4Fun's bets, as a differentiation of its offer, will be the availability of complete and complementary packages of activities. With various durations, from hours to days, the packages may include off-road tours, in Kart Cross or in the Classic Toyota BJ40, Paintball, walking routes, camping or local accommodation and nautical activities (SUP, Canoeing, Snorkeling).

In a region where nature has generously offered 1,000,000 km2 of sea, there are countless opportunities, for leisure and sports, to enjoy the sea and all its mystique and natural beauty. The sea is the largest and widest “natural product” in the Azores. Water sports are one of the most intimate and respectful ways of relating to the sea. The “beat” of the air on the face and body, the sound of hooves “tearing” the sea…the fantastic slopes and coves that we can only appreciate from the sea… “smell of the sea”… in a mutual relationship of surrender and fascination, in the sea, above all, we discover that it offers itself in fullness for us to enjoy it! Enjoying the sea, and all the countless spaces with enormous tourist value, only accessible or seen by sea, in non-motorized equipment, are a guarantee of total preservation and respect for the environment. Whether in the bay of Porto Pim, in Praia da Conceição, in Porto do Comprido next to the Capelinhos Volcano, in Varadouro, Porto de Castelo Branco overlooking the Morro,  Praia do Almoxarife, or any other port on the island of Faial (the state do mar is always the one who “sends” the most when choosing the place for the activity...) one thing is guaranteed: anywhere there is always a unique way to fully enjoy the “trilogy” Sea, Geology and Nautical Sports. The ideal, due to its singularities, will be to explore all the places, one at a time… Azores4Fun offers, with daily equipment rental, this opportunity, whether on a SUP board or in a Kayak or Canoe. Our boards and canoes are inflatable, which is very practical to take them easily to any location and venture out to explore.
