Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Horta’s harbour is one of the most important harbours of the world. Yachts from all over the world stop here as they cross the Atlantic Ocean. These visitors use to do some paintings on the harbour’s wall or at its floor and those are testimonies from their presence in Faial. These paintings are made to be remembered in the future or sometimes, painted because it’s said that those who don’t arrive to their destinies.

To log this cache go to the coordinates above where you will find a special painting. Please send me a mail, telling me what’s so special about the painting. And don’t forget to upload a picture of your favourite painting as well.

#40# On my way to Pico, I had just enough time to find the right painting and to make some photos. This picture I like for the use of an exiting chain for the painting. This gives the picture a 3-D impresion.
