Peter Café Sport Triathlon 2025 | 17th MAY
Culture and History
The Peter Café Sport Triathlon returns to the Azores Triangle on May 17, 2025, promising to be much more than just a sporting event. This edition is a true celebration of adventure, maritime heritage, and the stunning natural landscapes of the islands of Faial, Pico, and São Jorge.
Recognized as one of the most challenging triathlons in Portugal, the event combines three demanding and thrilling disciplines: open-water windsurfing, mountain biking along rugged trails, and sea kayaking. The windsurfing course, in particular, crosses areas rich in marine biodiversity, where participants may encounter dolphins, sharks, and even sperm whales, adding an extra layer of excitement and unpredictability.
The 2025 edition carries special significance as it marks the 100th anniversary of José Azevedo’s birth — the legendary “Peter,” founder of the iconic Peter Café Sport, a historic meeting point for sailors from around the world. The triathlon pays tribute to Peter’s legacy and his deep connection to the maritime culture of the Azores.
Attracting participants from several countries, the Peter Café Sport Triathlon draws not only elite athletes but also international media attention, helping to promote the Azores as a premier destination for sports tourism.
The diversity of disciplines provides a wide range of powerful imagery and compelling stories — from extreme sports enthusiasts to lovers of nature and maritime history.
