Please note: We are now outside turtle season, so sightings are not guaranteed. They’re still possible, and we’ll always do our best to find them. Avoid the crowded boats and enjoy a relaxed small-group turtle tour in Zakynthos. Our comfy small boat hosts just a few guests with space to move and chat with a friendly local skipper. We explore the Marine Park; if it’s safe and respectful, you may be invited to swim near turtles. You’ll also visit hidden beaches and sea caves, with flexible stops—just ask. Our captains prioritise guest experience and marine protection. Ideal for couples, families, or solo travellers seeking a personal, authentic day on the water.

The captain and crew will assist you. To reach the boat we must walk through shallow water for ten meters.

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.

The duration is vague due to cooperation of wild life and conditions of weather and water (Up to the captain’s discretion). Our captain was terrific and took full advantage of best opportunities. Just don’t plan to be back in a rush to something else. I was very glad to have brought my own snorkel and mask. This a a super way to see the best of the area. Small boats can get into smaller caves - more options! Getting back on the boat after a swim is somewhat challenging but the captain was extremely attentive and thoughtful of my 70 year old limitations.

I went on this trip by myself. I was a little apprehensive but I didn’t need to be. I was collected by Padalice (I hope thats how you spell his name). He was a great guide and took great care of the 7 of us on the trip. I wanted to do this trip on a small boat and this was the perfect way to do it. Honestly I would have been happy to leave out the visit to turtle bay but that was because it was a stoney beach! If I had taken beach shoes it would have been fine. Otherwise everything was wonderful. Seeing turtles was a big tick ✔️ seeing the scenery around the coast was amazing but my favourite bit was the swimming off the boat in a cave and the beautiful clear water. If you like small groups then this is definitely worth the cost.

Small boats are the best for a close up experience. Going into caves with the water so blue, and being able to swim with the turtles. You can’t do that with the big boats. Our captain Pantelis of Boat Share Greece was excellent and very knowledgeable. Great fun!!

Pantelis was a great captain and made the trip fun yet informative. With only 6 people on the tour there was ample room and enabled everyone to see the sights and take photos. Saw three turtles which was the highlight of the trip. Enjoyed swimming in the pure blue water and swimming through the caves. Would 100% recommend.
