It nests in crevices, under rocks, and inside caves. After breeding the birds leave the waters of the archipelago, and are likely to move south until they reach the waters of Namibia and South Africa. (Martín & Lorenzo, 2001)
The population is estimated at 1,000 nesting pairs (Vice-Ministry of the Environment, 2004)
