Shipwreck Beach Tour
€30 per person
Our boat tour to Shipwreck Beach is definitely our most popular excursion. If you have a car or at least a scooter with a 125cc engine, you can select this excursion with departure from the port located a 45-minute drive from our office. Our boats only take 15 minutes to reach the most famous cove in Zakynthos. We will first stop at Shipwreck Beach to take fabulous scenic pictures (a law from 2023 prohibits getting off the boat due to landslides). We’ll continue the tour by cruising along the massive rocky coastline, where you’ll be able to get a closeup view of beautiful caves and interesting rock formations, before reaching White Beach for the first swim stop of 20-25 minutes. After cruising along another stretch of the coastline and enjoying the beauty of additional caves and coves with waters ranging from turquoise to deep blue, we’ll take our second swim stop next to one of the western Blue Caves. Finally, we’ll take a 20-minute third and last swim stop in Porto Stenitis or in another scenic cove with breathtaking colors (we’ll choose one based on sea conditions). Before returning to the port, we’ll stop again for a few minutes to take pictures of another of the best attractions on the western coast, Poseidon’s Face.
Our Shipwreck Beach tour will allow you not only to swim and snorkel in bays with incredible colors, but also to visit some of the most beautiful coves, caves and rock formations on the western coast of Zakynthos.
Summary of the stops included in our Shipwreck Beach tour
- 2 photo stops (Shipwreck Beach + Poseidon’s Face)
- 3 swim stops (White Beach + Western Blue Caves + Stenitis).
This Shipwreck Beach tour is ideal for people who have their own transportation to move around the island; if you don’t have a car or if you only have a 50cc scooter, we recommend that you book either our Shipwreck Beach Tour + Bus, which includes the roundtrip bus ride to and from the departure port, or the Boat Tour & Minivan Tour which, in addition to our Shipwreck Beach Tour, includes stops at some of the main sites in Zakynthos.
Finally, if you are looking for greater privacy or would like to enjoy a unique experience with family or friends, we recommend a boat that doesn’t require a boating license or a boat with skipper.
This excursion lasts about 3 hours and has a cost of €30 per person.
