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.
