Hi guys!
My wife is treating me to a dive trip in the Azores this July (she’s a non-diver, so w00t!). We’re going to be there for about 2 weeks, with most the the time divided between Sao Miguel and Faial, but she suggested extending the trip 2-3 days and let me pick between Pico and Terceira.
I’m torn, because both seem to have some interesting dive locations. Pico - Princess Alice Banks (obviously). But Terceira has the Archaeological Park of f Angela do Heroismo Bay, the Cemetarios de Ancona’s, the Lidador (which I hear is nice), and the Banco Dom Joao de Castro (which I’ve heard can be challenging, but also nice).
Sadly, we only have 2-3 days otherwise I’d push to hit the highlights of both, but we can only do one. I tried to figure out which island might appeal to her and go that route, but no dice.
So… suggestions and advice would be helpful.
Thanks!
/rate myself as between a beginner and intermediate diver with about 40 dives under my belt
//will have my AOW and deep diver prior to trip
///already have SSI for night, navi, nitrox
