So know is possible to do canyoning in Flores Island (Azores) with all the conditions, informations and safety...if you're thinking about you vacations, know you have a good option.
I have all the material necessary (if anyone wants, it's not necessary to bring yours) or go with the groups if necessary.
there are all kind of descents and some of them end at the sea, view the pictures in the link below and you will enjoy.
Besides the lot's of good canyoning's that you can do, there are another activities for you to do while you're in the island like, scuba diving, trekking, trips to Corvo Island.
i'll post here the link of some pictures of the canyoning places.
