Details
Join us on our boat triparound the beautiful island of Zakynthos. During this day trip you will see the most famous destinations including the Blue Caves, the Navagio Shipwreck Beach, Marathonisi Island and more. Spend the whole day admiring the unique landscape of the Ionian Islands on our new and comfortable boat.
We depart from the harbour of Zakynthos Town. With the view of the town behind us, you can sit back and enjoy the landscapes of the East Coast as we make our way up north passing the sandy beaches of Tsilivi, Planos, Alikes and Alikanas. Soon we will arrive at our first stop, Makris Gialos, where you can jump into the turquoise waters during our 30-minutes swimming stop. This beach is famous for sulphur springs and their curative properties. Next we will approach the Blue Caves where water reflects the sunlight creating the blue shimmering colour of the cave. The boat will slow down here so that you can get a good picture of this natural phenomenon.
As we make our way to the Navagio Shipwreck Beach, we will pass charming hidden bays on the northern part. We stop 40 meters from the shore, so you can enjoy the stunning scenery of this exceptional beach and the bay surrounding it. Just before our 30-minutes swimming stop at Corali Beach, we will pass the small fisher's port of Porto Vromi with Poseidon's Face watching us as we enter the bay. Then we will enter Agalas Cave, one of the island's biggest caves, and continue to our last 30-minutes swimming stop at Oasis-Marathias Beach. On our way back we will enter the bay of Laganas where you might be lucky to see some turtles. We will slow down at Marathonisi Island, which is the turtle's nesting place. On the way back, you will get the chance to admire the sandy beaches of Vasilikos before arriving back at the port of Zakynthos Town.Highlights
