Description
Get to know Zakynthos on a day trip around its top coastal spots. Discover beaches like Navagio and Sfogio, take a boat trip into the Blue Caves, and enjoy a traditional Greek lunch.
Explore the island of Zakynthos on a day trip starting from Argassi. Stop by the island's top beaches, including Navagio beach, where you'll see a shipwrecked boat up close. Sail into caves and snorkel in the turquoise waters at Sfogeio beach. Finish with lunch at a local Greek restaurant.
Start the day with pickup from your hotel in Argassi. Drive via olive groves, vineyards, and villages to Porto Vromi. From here, take a boat tour to Navagio beach. Enter the cove and explore the shipwrecked boat on the beach. Admire the limestone cliffs and spend an hour swimming and snorkeling.
Next, sail to the Blue Caves, where the sunlight reflects on the clear waters to light up the caves with a magical blue tint. Enter the cave itself and stop to swim and snorkel in the waters.
From there, head to the secluded Sfogio Beach to admire the limestone rocks and white pebbled coastline. Explore the area's caves, ending at Poseidon Cave in Porto Vromi bay. Spot the breathtaking rock formation which is said to resemble the face of Poseidon, the ancient god of the sea.
Disembark and walk along the cliff to an impressive viewing platform. Next, you can choose to enjoy an authentic Greek lunch at a local restaurant (not included in the price of the tour). Taste delicious homemade dishes from the family-run tavern and sample some local wine.
Finally, stop by the island's famous 2000-year-old olive tree, one of the oldest in the Mediterranean. Spot the nearby filming locations of the popular K-Drama Descendants of the Sun. Finish the day with transportation back to your hotel in Argassi.
