About the experience

Discover the beautiful southern coastline of Zakynthos on a captivating half day cruise across the crystal clear waters of the Ionian Sea. This journey takes you through some of the island’s most scenic coastal landscapes, where impressive rock formations, hidden caves and peaceful beaches create a truly memorable experience.

The cruise begins with a scenic sail toward the spectacular Mizithres Rocks, two striking limestone formations rising dramatically from the sea. Surrounded by brilliant turquoise waters and steep white cliffs, this location offers a breathtaking natural setting and a perfect opportunity to admire one of Zakynthos’ most famous coastal landmarks.

The journey continues to the remarkable Keri Caves, a series of sea arches and tunnels carved into the cliffs over centuries. The sunlight reflecting across the water and cave walls creates beautiful shades of blue, making this area one of the most fascinating natural sights along the coastline.

Along the route the cruise also passes Oasis Beach and heads toward Marathonisi Island, often called Turtle Island due to its distinctive shape and the sea turtles that inhabit the surrounding waters. With its soft sandy shores and coastal caves, this island is one of the most picturesque spots in the region.

The experience also includes sailing through the calm waters of Laganas Bay and past the small island of Cameo, before continuing along the coastline near Vasilikos where beaches such as Gerakas and Banana can be admired from the sea. Surrounded by stunning scenery and guided by a welcoming crew, this cruise offers a relaxing and unforgettable way to explore Zakynthos from the water.

We had a wonderful afternoon. The skipper showed us the most beautiful spots on the north side of the island. Everything was very relaxed and a nice mix of sailing and swimming. Highly recommended.
