Cruise Itinerary

We will depart at 17:30 from Zakynthos Town Port, sailing along the coastline of Tsilivi and Alykanas. Our first stop for swimming will be the beautiful Xigia Beach. One of the first things you will notice as we approach Xigia is the amazing turquoise color of the sea, a result of natural spring water flowing into the sea after collecting sulfur from the rocks. This natural phenomenon creates a unique spa experience as sulfur possesses several healing properties and is reputed to be good for skin, aiding in the reduction of cellulite, and providing relief for arthritis and other minor ailments.

Following our revitalizing stop at Xigia Beach, our journey will continue to the renowned Shipwreck Beach, one of the most photographed beaches in the world. Nestled in a secluded cove surrounded by towering cliffs, its name is derived from the remains of the MV Panagiotis, a smuggling vessel that lies on the shore. The ship met its fate in October 1980 while evading the Greek Navy, carrying a cargo of contraband cigarettes. Encountering stormy weather, it ran aground in a shallow cove, where the crew abandoned it to evade capture. The sea eventually brought it to rest on this stunning beach.

After Shipwreck Beach, we will visit some marvelous secluded beaches nearby to relax and enjoy swimming in privacy. Then, we will sail towards the Blue Caves, a series of natural arches and caves carved by the sea over thousands of years. The wild, white rocky landscape, along with the crystal blue waters, forms a contrast that will leave you speechless. We will anchor very close to the caves so that you can enjoy the view and swim inside them. At this unique location, you will have the chance to experience a breathtaking sunset. Once the sun has set, we will head back to Zakynthos Town Port.
