“The tour was very well planned and we got to see so many different sights”
Set out from Agios Sostis on a small semi-yacht speedboat with an English or Greek-speaking captain. Look for Caretta caretta turtles, pass Cameo Islet, enter Keri’s sea caves, swim at Oasis and Marathonisi, and return with hotel transport included.
“The boat trip was a fantastic experience! I would definitely recommend this as it was easy booking and a modern speed boat for 8 persons. Our guide FRED made it special as he really is a funny and trustful captain. He brought us not only to the Blue Caves, but also in them with the boat. Sounds weird? It is the truth. Unfortunately no turtle, but it is too late in the year.”
Sail from Porto Vromi Maries to Navagio Shipwreck Beach, then follow Zakynthos’ west coast through the Blue Caves, Sfogio, White Beach, Porto Steniti, and Poseidon’s Profile. Expect three swim stops, an English or Greek-speaking crew, and small boats that can enter narrow caves.
“I really never write any recommendations but this tour was absolutely amazing. The captain was soo cool, played nice music and had a nice vibe. He stopped at many blue caves and one hidden cave which was just incredible. I can highly recommend this tour! Don’t forget snorkeling equipment!”

“We had such a great time on our half-day tour with Izabela and Mike! Izabela was amazing with our big group, so organised, friendly, and absolutely brilliant with the kids. (they loved her!) She even went out of her way to take gorgeous family photos for us. Mike was a great driver too. Highly recommend! Also, it’s a must to try the olive tapenade and the strawberry coated nuts when you get to the end of the tour. And also the pomegranate cream was divine too!”
Meet captain Takis Karidis at Orizodes Restaurant near St Nikolaos, then cruise by speed boat to Navagio Beach and the Blue Caves. Expect shipwreck views, bright blue water, a swim stop, and live English commentary. Shared and private options are available, weather permitting.
“Beautiful boat tour, but despite the promise we could not go to the water at the shipwreck (they referred to the bad weather). We could not see that the weather is wrong and many other people were in the water. We are a little bit disappointed.”
