To the Azores by ferry
Is there a ferry service from mainland Europe to the Azores? How would one get there without flying? I don't want to take a car with me.
I've found ferry services within the Azores and information that there is no ferry service between Portugal and the Azores, but wasn't able to rule out other possibilities.
Best Answer
It's hard to prove a negative, but https://www.ferrylines.com only lists ferry lines between the individual islands of the Azores.
