Zakynthos: Shipwreck Beach, Viewpoint, Blue Caves Day Tour

1. Zakynthos: Shipwreck Beach, Viewpoint, Blue Caves Day Tour

Explore all the must-see spots in Zakynthos. Enjoy Shipwreck Beach, the Blue Caves, impressive viewpoints, and more. The first stop is Bochali Hill, the old neighborhood of Zakynthos town, experience the views of the town and the port that are absolutely stunning. Then we will head to the shipwreck platform Viewpoint. Nature gave us this special place to enjoy seeing from the top, crystalline waters, steep limestone formations, a rusty hull in the middle of the white beach, and a swarm of tourists burning on the sand for a selfie, posing before the photographic lens narrating the story of one of the most stunning beaches on the planet. Soak into the magnificent blue of the water and sky. After a quick stop to use the restrooms, we will stop at Porto Vromi in Maries or at Agios Nikolaos (according to the weather conditions) to take the boat (medium size, 15-25 persons) for a 3 hours mini cruise to the Shipwreck beach and Blue Caves. Discover the location that makes this island so unique, one of the most photographed spots in Greece, the Navagio beach (the shipwreck beach) with its clear white pebble sands as soon as you approach, it gives you a unique and spectacular turquoise color of the water. You cannot avoid jumping into that water. It is a memory that you won't forget. After an hour of swimming and exploring the rusty boat, we will head to the amazing blue caves. With an extraordinary shade of blue in some spots, we'll get up close to the caves and go through some of them, a great opportunity to jump off the boat, swim, and see the fish with a mask and snorkel. It is time to enjoy lunch (at your own expense) at one of the most beautiful Greek, traditional, mountain taverns in the village of Anafonitria, with a family atmosphere and great service. The famous 2,000-year-old olive tree is located in the village of Exo Chora, Zakynthos island. It is one of the seven oldest olive trees in the Mediterranean, and probably one of the oldest olive trees in the world. It still produces olives to this day. Here we will find some traditional products of the area and the local farmers that you can taste for free as oil, olives, wine, and liqueurs as well as biological beauty products. Xigia Beach, the place where the springs provide a natural spa, is very nice to swim here. The seawater contains sulfur and collagen that have healing properties. And if you need any refreshments on the beach, look out for the most ingenious and funny way they get drinks down to the beach. It is very picturesque and has good photo opportunities from the clifftop. Therianos Family Farm is an organic farm where they cultivate a wide range of fruits and vegetables, herbs, and flowers. Their Olive Oil was awarded the Gold Standard at the International Society, Olympia Awards. They also produce a selection of wines and the famous black raisins. We will visit the farm, meet the animals, and taste the local products.

Zakynthos: Private Customizable Zakynthos Tour

4. Zakynthos: Private Customizable Zakynthos Tour

Meet with your private driver-guide at your accommodation, port, or airport and hop inside your comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, and set off on your customized tour of the island. Your tour includes all transport fees, but all meals are at your own expense. Before you head anywhere, chat with your friendly guide about the sights you want to see and visit during your tour. As it is private, the itinerary is completely flexible and can be customized to match your interests and preferences. You can also ask your guide for their inside take on what to see and do, and perhaps discover some of the experiences and places that other visitors never get to witness. Explore the picturesque village of Bochali, which is almost hanging on top of the cape, and offers a panoramic view of the infinite Ionian Sea, the city, and the harbor. Enjoy Xigia Sulfur beach, (also known as Collagen Beach) with its collagen and natural Sulphur sweeping the shore. In this unique phenomenon, the water appears to be a milky blue color which is stunning and it is meant to boost collagen which has a lot of health benefits for your skin. Experience the Shipwreck viewpoint at midday, the perfect time when the sun and sea sparkle in many shades of turquoise. The water is so clear that when you take pictures of boats from above, it seems weird as you can see the shadow on the seabed and giving the illusion that they are floating over the water instead of touching it. You will be able to see and photograph what is considered one of the most beautiful beaches all over the world. Time to meet with our captain and be amazed by the blend of emerald waters, beautiful seabed, sheltered coves, and secluded beaches, as we head to explore the famous shipwreck beach and the blue caves of the northwest coast that are natural wonders.

Discover Porto Limnionas one of the most hidden places and maybe for this reason more beautiful and wild on the entire island.

It was a great full-day experience we had in the middle of September! Even though the access both to the view point and shipwreck beach were restricted by government due to an earthquake happening couple of days prior the tour, our guide George still made it memorable - best parts were great views of the island, swimming in a secluded bay and eating and resting at a very welcoming tavern, being a small group was especially nice!

It’s an excellent tour Jorgos I hope I wrote the name correct is exellent guide!Very polite and looked after our group very well Also Dali company highly recommend
