Cruise past the beautiful Keri Caves — with our small boat we can even explore inside.

What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Return hotel transfers are included from resorts within a 6 km radius of Zakynthos Airport (Zakynthos Town, Argassi, Kalamaki and Laganas).
We aim to collect guests directly from their accommodation; however, to minimise overall travel time, a convenient nearby pick-up point may occasionally be arranged.
Pickups from areas just outside this zone, such as Tsilivi, are available for a €5 return (round-trip) pickup fee per person.
Pickups from all other areas of the island are available on request and subject to confirmation, and may incur an additional fee depending on distance.
Guests may also request a preferred pick-up location within the included radius. We recommend contacting the supplier after booking and prior to the tour to confirm the exact pick-up point, time, and any applicable supplement.
This is the port where you will meet your captain on the day of the tour. If you are meeting us directly at the port, we will contact you the day before the tour to confirm the exact meeting time and ensure a smooth and easy meeting.

Every year hundreds of Caretta Caretta sea turtles emigrate to the shores of Zakynthos. This tour gives you the perfect opportunity to see them swimming in their natural habitat. Our small boat does not bother or overshadow the turtles. They often swim happily by the side of the boat oblivious to the fact that we are there. This gives you peace of mind knowing that we are not disturbing them. this also allows us the perfect view and holiday photographs. Plus If your captain thinks that it is safe for you and the turtles he will allow you to jump in and swim peacefully alongside them giving you an experience that you'll never forget.

More commonly known as 'Turtle Island.' Not only is this an important nesting beach for the sea turtles, but the island is also shaped like a giant mother turtle! You'll sail around Turtle Island discovering its small caves and hidden beaches before stopping on its main beautiful beach for sunbathing, swimming, and maybe even a treat from one of the floating bars offering cold drinks and ice cream.

4Keri Caves
You'll explore the large caves and coves of Keri, where you'll stop for a swim in the crystal-clear blue waters. One advantage of using a small boat is that you can actually enter the caves—something larger boats can't do. Inside, you’ll witness spectacular sunlight reflections off the deep waters, turning them bright blue. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even swim through a small connecting tunnel between the caves.

The moment you’ve been waiting for. ‘Mizithres’ is a stunning rock formation rising from the sea like two giant shark fins. The water here is a stunning electric blue due to the white limestone in the area. Before the sun sets, you have time to swim, visit the beach, or even swim through the giant rock revealing an even more impressive beach. For the sunset, your captain will position the boat within the rocks to give you the best view of the sunset. Get ready for the perfect sunset photos.
