Jun-Oct at Princesa Alice and Ambrósio. Unbaited, and the aggregations are described as easy to predict, which is unusual for a pelagic ray.
seasonalnatural
The offshore diving that defines the Azores has a hard summer window: blue shark trips run July to mid-October, devil rays June to October. Outside that, inshore diving continues in spring and autumn with 10m visibility and cold water, and effectively stops in midwinter. Encoded 'closed' for Jan-Feb and December because the offshore operators do not run and there is nothing recognisable as an Azores dive trip; 'limited' in the shoulders where inshore diving is possible but the seamounts are not.
