If you are travelling to Faial by boat or if your stay is in the city of Horta, we recommend you to rent a Hertz car so you can have all the mobility you need to see the island from end to end, including steep climbs.
From the Cabeço Gordo viewpoint, the highest point on the island, Faial seems to descend softly towards the sea. The island of Faial, covered in vegetation, pastures and the sea, presents a setting that combines nature’s green with an unforgettable cerulean blue. Perfect for those who want to rent a car and spend holidays with the family.
Horta’s marina is one of the most visited in the world, hosting international regattas, as well as other nautical events. The marina is also famous for the drawings of crews and sailors that pass through, creating a truly artistic and historical place with endless stories to tell.
Finally, we cannot forget to mention the Fort of São Sebastião, founded in the 18th century, whose purpose was to protect the port from pirates and privateers, making the island a safe point for maritime trade.
Renting a car is arguably one of the easiest ways to explore the island. Luckily, Hertz has an office in the airport and another in town. You can also take advantage of the Hertz Gold Plus Rewards car rental program. With this program you can avoid big queues at the counter, accumulate points for international rentals and earn premium status as you rent.
