Horta is situated in the western part of the Archipelago of the Azores on the island of Faial. The marina is a primary stop for yachts crossing the Atlantic. Its walls and walkways are covered in paintings created by the crews of visiting ships. Peter’s Cafe Sport, located across from the marina, houses the island’s scrimshaw museum. A collection of artefacts carved from whale tooth and jawbone. This café is a point of reference for trans-Atlantic yachtsmen and sailors.
Ports
Monaco and its surroundings offer marvellous landscapes and sea views unique to the South of France. This is where the rich and famous come to live the good life! Rent a car if you have the time, and visit the old village of Eze, and La Turbie where you can see the ‘Trophy of Augustus’. The nearby town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin is largely built onto a mountain wall and can only be explored on foot. Of course, you can also saunter through Monaco proper and perhaps make a wager in its casinos.
