Next we will cruise close to the small island of Marathonisi, also known as Turtle Island due to its shape and can enjoy a swim stop at the caves at the back of the island.

Sailing south to the stunning Keri Caves where you will have some fantastic photo opportunities.

It should be noted that the boat does not stop at any beaches, but anchors in suitable waters and you can enter the sea via the ladders on the boat.Suitable for strong/confident swimmers, alternatively swimming aids will be required.

    The swim stops were really good, beautiful scenery. Felt sorry for the 1 turtle surrounded by 12 boats at least, this trip is very oversubscribed. Really did not enjoy 20 minutes stood in scorching heat waiting for boat - again oversubscription making the experience bad.

Tour Secreto Zante com Mosteiro, Cavernas Azuis e Degustações de Especialidades Locais

É fácil entender por que os venezianos chamavam Zante de "Flor do Oriente". Este passeio exclusivo leva você a algumas das vilas mais bonitas da ilha e ao remoto mosteiro de Anafonitria também. E isso não é tudo. Também haverá vinho e doces locais para provar, além de um curto passeio de barco até as Cavernas Azuis - um dos pontos mais profundos do Mediterrâneo.

Zante cruise to Turtle Island for private groups

Grab a group of your nearest and dearest and set sail on this private cruise to the island of Marthonisi, better known as Turtle Island. You'll head out from Laganas Bay, part of the Zakynthos Marine Park which is a protected area where loggerhead turtles nest. Your experienced captain will tell you all about these endangered animals as you try to catch a glimpse of them during your three-hour trip. If the weather's on your side, you'll get to have a wander on the uninhabited island and go for a swim. It's like your own private slice of paradise.
