Sea Week
A weeklong seaside festival in Horta with nautical sports, music, crafts, food fairs and a fireworks finale
During one week in August, the sea is the key theme underlying the year’s most important event in the island of Faial. The nautical Festival is the main event within the Sea Week and includes sporting competitions in various modalities such as swimming, diving, water polo, sail and whale boat regattas, rowing, canoeing, jet skiing, and angling.
On land, the animation is complemented by music and folklore performances, exhibitions, handicrafts and gastronomy fairs. The week ends with a grandiose fireworks display over the Bay of Horta.
