Zakynthos: Pirate Ship Cruise to Shipwreck Beach & Caves

Sail around Zakynthos on Greece's only pirate ship. Swim at Shipwreck Beach, explore the Blue Caves, and spot Caretta sea turtles.
Board Greece's only Pirate Ship for a full 7-hour voyage around the entire coastline of Zakynthos. Live pirate shows, authentic Greek music, and entertainment run throughout the day — while the route takes you to beaches and caves inaccessible by road.

n optional hotel transfer can bring you to Zakynthos Town Main Port .The Pirate Ship sets sail at 09:30, heading north along the east coast past Tsilivi, Planos, Alikanas, and Alikes.

First swim stop: Xigia Natural Spa Beach (45 minutes). The water here is naturally infused with sulphur — known for healing skin conditions. A uniquely therapeutic stop that most competitors on the island skip entirely.

From Xigia the ship passes close to the coastline, giving you panoramic views and photo opportunities of the entire island. You'll pass the harbour of Agios Nikolaos, where the Venetian watchtower stands on the cliff above the port.

The Blue Caves. Approaching from the sea, the sunlight transforms the cave water into electric shades of blue, turquoise, violet and red. The Pirate Ship enters the largest cave for an up-close experience and photos.

Shipwreck Beach (Navagio) — the main highlight. The most iconic site in Zakynthos and one of the most photographed beaches on Earth. Accessible only by sea, the rusted hull of a 1980s freighter rests perfectly on a crescent of white sand surrounded by towering white limestone cliffs. Swim in the turquoise water, explore the wreck, and enjoy a full pirate show on deck. BBQ souvlaki is available for purchase here.

Continuing south, the ship passes Porto Vromi — the oldest fishing village on Zakynthos, where the Face of Poseidon is carved naturally into the cliffs above the sea.

Second swim stop: Korakonisi. A secluded sea-level stop with no road access — only reachable by boat. Crystal-clear Ionian waters and total seclusion.
Dragon Caves (Δρακοσπηλιές) — a complex of 230 sea caves. The Pirate Ship enters the largest cave for a dramatic pirate show inside the cavern — one of the most memorable moments of the day.

Third swim stop: Keri Caves / Oasis Beach in the south of the island. Spectacular cave formations above and crystal water below.
On the final stretch, you pass Marathonisi and Pelouzos — the turtle-shaped islands at the heart of the Zakynthos Marine Park. Watch the water for Caretta-Caretta sea turtles. The return route follows the east coast back past Porto Zoro, Banana Beach, Porto Roma, and Argasi, docking at Zakynthos Town at 17:00.
Throughout the entire cruise: live pirate shows, Greek music, dancing, and entertainment by the crew. Sandwiches, snacks, and cold drinks are available to purchase onboard.

Note: the itinerary is subject to change at the captain's discretion based on weather and sea conditions.
