Zante: Full-Day Cruise around the island with Swimming Stops Zante: Full-Day Cruise around the island with Swimming Stops

Explore the coast of Zakynthos on a full-day boat tour. Swim in the crystal-clear waters of Coralli Beach, see the Blue Caves, and admire the famous Shipwreck Beach.
Departure from harbour Zakynthos we set sail from the port and head north along the east coast, passing the sandy beaches of Tsilivi, Planos, Alikes, and Alykanas. Relax and enjoy the view as you cruise along the coast.

Reach Makris Gialos, a beach filled with yellow-colored tiny pebbles and surrounded by tall waterworn rocks, which have formed small caves. Continue to the picturesque fishing village of Agios Nikolaos.

Soon after, marvel at the famous Blue Caves. Slow down the boat and get very close to the caves so you can take nice photos of this natural phenomenon. The blue color is caused by the water reflecting the sun to the walls of the caves and creating a sea-bed of all shades of blue and turquoise.

At Cape Skinari, the northernmost point of the island, the landscape changes into very steep cliffs, rocks with small hidden bays, caves, and inaccessible beaches. If you are lucky, you might also spot some dolphins.

Next, arrive at the world-famous Shipwreck Beach (or Smuggler’s Cove), one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. Be overwhelmed by its sight as you enter the bay. Stop 40 meters from the shore, so you can enjoy the breathtaking view and take unique photos of the stunning scenery.

Sail to the western coast and explore Porto Vromi, where Poseidon’s face, shaped in the rocks, is waiting for you, watching over this small fishing bay. Stop for a swim at the virgin Coralli Beach near Koiliomenos village. Enjoy the limestone cliffs and dive into turquoise water, in a place only locals used to visit until recently.

Later, visit the biggest cave on the island, Agalas. Take some amazing photos from the inside. Having reached the south of the island, see the famous Caves of Keri. The caves in this area are also home to the Mediterranean monk seals Monachus Monachus. Make another refreshing swimming stop at Oasis Beach, where the water is so clear that it’s a perfect place for snorkeling.

As you enter the Bay of Laganas, be ready as you might be lucky enough to see some turtles and capture one of your most memorable holiday moments. Admire the turtle-shaped island of Marathonissi, the turtle’s beautiful nesting place.

On your way back to Zakynthos town, pass several long sandy beaches in Vassilikos such as Gerakas, Porto Zoro, Banana Beach, Porto Roma, and St. Nicholas Beach.
