Mobile ticket

Avoid the crowded tour boats and enjoy a relaxed, small-group turtle tour in Zakynthos. Our trips are limited to just a few guests on a comfortable small boat, giving you space to move, chat with fellow passengers, and connect with your friendly local skipper. We head into the Zakynthos Marine Park where turtles often swim right beside the boat. If it's safe and respectful to the turtles, you may even be invited to swim near them. You'll also visit hidden beaches, explore sea caves, and enjoy flexible stops — if your group wants to stay longer at a spot, just ask. Our captains prioritize both guest experience and marine life protection. This peaceful, nature-focused tour is ideal for couples, families, or solo travelers wanting a personal, authentic day on the water. It’s a memorable experience that leaves both guests and turtles undisturbed and happy.

Turtle Spot Zakynthos

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.

Keri 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.

    Would highly recommend this excursion to anyone. My partner and I opted for this as we wanted to be on a smaller boat with less crowds of people. There was us and two other couples. It was very intimate but we had plenty of room to lay and soak up the beautiful Zante coastline. Our tour guide / driver was very knowledgeable highlighting all the points of interest and even went out of his way to extend the tour to allow us the unforgettable experience of swimming with a turtle, whilst other tours hadn’t let their customers off of the boat. Furthermore, they provided transfer to and from our hotel that was included in the price. Overall, it was a very affordable experience that we will never forget.

    This was a great boat ride! We had the opportunity to swim with one turtle, which was absolutely amazing. We were hoping to see more but nature makes that choice. We got to swim in breathtaking caves and see the stunning coastline of southern Zakynthos. We also saw the breeding ground where the turtle eggs are nesting. Very cool experience!
