The most popular ones are undoubtedly Keri Caves and the Blue Caves, but many others are just as beautiful and are worth exploring. In this article, we\u2019ll review the most interesting and unique ones.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Blue Caves: The Name Can Be Deceiving<\/h4>\r\n<p>The term \u201cBlue Caves\u201d is commonly used by locals to indicate any caves where the strikingly crystal clear water creates mesmerizing reflections of blue light on the walls, thus sometimes causing confusion among tourists. Although the Northern Blue Caves are the most popular and advertised ones, it is worth noting that swimming is prohibited there and excursions only allow you to view them from the boat. Those who prefer a more authentic experience can select our Western Blue Cave Tour, where participants can leave the boat to fully enjoy the magic of these crystal clear waters.

Unlike the Northern Blue Caves,\u00a0visitors are allowed to swim inside the Western Blue Caves, thus enjoying an authentic and unique experience, a full immersion in the island\u2019s rugged and unspoiled landscape. <br \/>As result of the sunlight reflecting on the rocks and sea, the water inside these caves takes on intense shades of blue and swimmers appear enveloped in a charming turquoise luminescence. This natural wonder makes the Western Blue Caves a must-see destination for snorkeling and underwater photography lovers. The Western Blue Caves are only reachable by sea, through organized tours or by renting a boat with or without a skipper.

As for the other caves on the island, the name of this natural wonder comes from the intense blue color that the sea takes on inside the caves. This optical effect, generated from the reflection of sunlight, causes any bodies or objects immersed in the sea inside the caves to take on a magical turquoise hue.

From there,\u00a0you can <strong>enjoy wonderful views of the valley below<\/strong>. Local legend has it that Damianos, the village ruler and protector, fought and defeated the evil dragon Andronios. As a punishment, the dragon was forced to dig twelve wells, one for each month of the year, to provide a water source for local residents. From his cave, Damianos watched Andronios carry out his punishment and when the dragon reemerged, Damianos killed him with his horse, forever tying his fate to the cave bearing his name. Inside the cave, there is in fact a rock that resembles the head of a horse. Eleven of the twelve wells are visible from the surface, whereas the twelfth one is buried underground. They are privately owned and are located just outside the village of Agalas, among vineyards and olive groves. They are still used today as a water supply for the residents.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"black-caves\">Black Caves<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"469\" class=\"wp-image-25115\" src=\"https:\/\/welcometozante.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/La-grotta-nera-mavri-spilia-di-Zante.jpg\" alt=\"la grotta black cave o grotta nera di Zante\" srcset=\"https:\/\/welcometozante.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/La-grotta-nera-mavri-spilia-di-Zante.jpg 900w, https:\/\/welcometozante.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/La-grotta-nera-mavri-spilia-di-Zante-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/welcometozante.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/La-grotta-nera-mavri-spilia-di-Zante-768x400.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption>Black Caves<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Black Cave is located in the Zakynthos countryside and specifically, in the village of Kallithea (location <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/C42X4UAca95uUup68\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/C42X4UAca95uUup68<\/span><\/a><\/span>).
