Details
Join us on our boat for a beautiful trip around Zakynthos. We will start from North Zakynthos, from here everyone takes their own car for 3 minutes to the port where we can board the boat. Once everyone is on the boat, we will set sail around Cape Skinari. This route allows you to see the difference between the east and the west side of the island perfectly.
The west coast has steep cliffs and small bays, one of which is called St. Andreas Cove. From the shore of Shipwreck Beach, you will be able to observe and take pictures of the remains of a ship that was used to smuggle cigarettes over the Ionian Sea. After that, we continue towards our second swimming stop at the Blue Caves.
We will get off the boat at Agios Nikolaos port, where you can once again take pictures and go swimming. If you choose to be picked up and dropped off at your accommodation by bus, we will make an additional swimming stop at Xigia Beach on our drive back. The sulphuric waters of this beach will make you look and feel young again!
Highlights
- Watch the sea life comfortably from the boat
- Visit to St. Andreas Cove
- Swimming stop at the Blue Caves, Agios Nickolaos Port and Xigia Beach

We had an absolutely amazing experience! Everything was very well organised from start to finish, and our guide was so kind, attentive and helpful.
The boat trip was simply magical! Our captain really took the time to explain everything to us, show us the most beautiful places and make sure we could enjoy every moment to the fullest. We never felt rushed and could really appreciate the scenery and the whole experience.
You can truly feel how much they care about making the trip special for their guests. We enjoyed every single moment and would highly recommend this tour!
