Vila da Praia - Transport & Travel
Graciosa Airport has connecting flights to Porta Delgada Airport and Terceira operated by SATA Air Açores.
The airport is a good place to rent a car on the island.
Ferries connect the various groups of islands in the Azores. However,
sailings are subject to the weather and the season, being less frequent in winter when the seas can be rough.

In May 2014 we were directed to moor at the stone quay immediately to port on entering the inner harbor (no electricity, water from a single tap on a nearby building). We spent 2 nearly swell-free and free nights. 2 other transient boats of about 40ft had slipped on finger berths with electricity and water, also completely and unconditionally free.
GNR office directly opposite of the slipway in the oldest part of the port. Good restaurant in town, 2 minutes by foot.
I have doubts that this would be a safe place in stronger easterly winds.
