Overview

Zakynthos is known for its Caretta Caretta sea turtles that come to its shores annually. This small-group boat tour lasts about three hours and fifteen minutes and offers a quiet way to see turtles in the Marine Park without disturbing them. The boat holds just a few guests, allowing room to move and talk with the local skipper. If conditions allow, guests may swim near the turtles. The tour also visits the large sea caves and coves of Keri. The small boat can enter these caves, where guests can swim in clear blue water and see sunlight reflections inside. There is an option to swim through a small tunnel connecting some of the caves. Next, the boat sails around Marathonisi - known as Turtle Island - shaped like a mother turtle and an important turtle nesting site. Guests stop at the main beach for swimming and sunbathing. Floating bars nearby offer cold drinks and ice cream. The tour includes private transportation and snorkeling equipment, while gratuities are not included.
