Full description

Meet the captain "Takis Karidis" at noon (12.30 PM) with your tickets at the port of St. Nikolaos on the northeastern side of Zakynthos island. After a short meet and greet with your skipper, you will set off into the horizon aboard your boat for a jam-packed day full of adventure. Your first stop of the day will be Navagio beach, arriving at approximately 1:15 PM just as the big boats leave, offering you a more private experience as you enjoy and explore without large crowds. While approaching the famous shipwreck beach, the captain will share with you the true story of the abandoned boat and help you land on the beach with safety. After 1 to 1.5-hours, your captain will call you back to board the boat once again, so you can head to your next destination - the Blue Caves. After leaving the Navagio behind you will eventually find yourself at the Blue Caves. On the glass-bottom boat, you will be able to see the clear deep water and observe fish, corals and the rich sea life. If you feel up to it, you can ask your skipper for a life vest and even swim in the crystal clear blue waters. End your day back at the dock where you first boarded the boat.

The tour was very good and the crew were accommodating and friendly. You could tell that they really wanted their guests to have a good time while making sure everyone is safe. The shipwreck beach and caves were both very pretty and the tour lasted exactly as stated. Overall good value for money,I would definitely recommend

Der Treffpunkt am Restaurant (sehr schön!) ist ca. 5 Minuten vom eigentlichen Hafen entfernt. Vermutlich möchte der Veranstalter einfach, dass im Restaurant noch gegessen/getrunken wird. Als dann plötzlich unser Guide, der kein englisch sprach, mit seinem Roller kam um uns abzuholen, mussten alle schnell in ihre Autos springen und ihm zum Hafen folgen. Vor Ort war es recht chaotisch, da mehrere unterschiedliche Gruppen auf verschiedene Boote gelotst wurden. Die Fahrt mit dem Boot dauerte ca. 30 Minuten zum Shipwreck. Hier wurden wir rausgelassen und nach einer Stunde wieder abgeholt. Der Strand war überfüllt, aber wunderschön! Trotz der vielen Menschen ein Erlebnis das ich nicht missen möchte und ein absolutes Muss für jeden Zakynthos Urlauber. Auf der Rückfahrt machten wir einen Stopp bei den Blue Caves - hier konnten wir auch nochmal für ca. 15 Minuten ins Wasser springen. Hier war es auch atemberaubend und zum Glück nur 3-4 andere Touri-Boote da, sodass es nicht so überfüllt war.

It was AMAZING! You can see Navagio and the Blue Caves in the same tour. First, when I saw only 3 hours on the ticket I thought that we are only going to pass near the locations. But the guide even let us swim at the Blue Caves for haf an hours, not only at Navagio. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our time here and of course we felt in love with that amazing blue!
