AT TIMES DURING THE SUMMER, FERRYS ALSO COME IN FROM ITALY – YOU CAN
CHECK WITH THE FERRY OFFICE ON THE MAIN PORT ROAD OF ZANTE TOWN FOR
BOOKING AND SCHEDULE ENQUIRIES.
LARGE BOAT TOURS
IF YOU PREFER TO TRAVEL ON THE LARGER BOATS, YOU CAN OPT TO TAKE A
ROUND THE ISLAND TOUR ON ONE OF THE CRUISE BOATS. THIS WAY YOU WILL GET
TO SEE THE ENTIRE COAST LINE OF ZAKYNTHOS AND STOP TO SWIM AT SOME OF
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES.
YOU CAN BOOK THESE BOAT TRIPS FROM A NUMBER OF THE TRAVEL AGENCIES
WITHIN THE TOURIST RESORTS IN ZANTE. A TYPICAL DAY ON BOARD A ROUND THE
ISLAND TOUR WOULD INCLUDE:
• A STOP AT THE BLUE CAVES, WHERE YOU CAN TAKE PICTURES OF THE SEA
CAES AND ARCHES
• AN HOUR TO GET OFF AND SWIM AT SHIPWRECK BAY ON THE WEST COAST OF THE
ISLAND
• SAIL AROUND THE WEST COAST TO PORTO VROMI
• STOP IS AT THE KERI CAVES FOR A SWIM AND A GUIDED BOAT TOUR
• ANOTHER SWIM STOP AT OASIS BEACH IN KERI
• SAIL ON TO MARATHONISI ISLAND, ONE OF THE MAIN CARETTA CARETTA
HABITATS
• A FINAL SWIM AT THE POPULAR BEACH OF ST NIKS ON THE SOUTHERN COAST OF
THE ISLAND
THESE ROUND THE ISLAND TOURS ARE A COST EFFECTIVE WAY TO SEE A LOT OF
ZANTE IN ONE DAY! YOU WILL GET A GOOD FEELING FOR THE DIFFERENT COASTS
OF THE ISLAND AND HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SWIM IN SOME OF OUR FAVOURITE
SPOTS.
WHILE THESE BIG BOAT TRIPS ARE VERY POPULAR, BEAR IN MIND THAT YOU
WILL OFTEN BE ON BOARD WITH A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE – THESE BOATS ARE HIGH
CAPACITY AND CAN BE QUITE CROWDED IN THE HEIGHT OF THE SUMMER. ALSO, YOU
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ENJOY THE SITES AS CLOSE AND PERSONALLY AS IF YOU
CHOOSE A SMALLER BOAT TRIP FROM THE LOCAL REGIONS!
