Zante Cruise

Lixouri area - guests will be transferred to/from hotel and Lixouri port and will join the excursion on arrival in Argostoli port. Ferry tickets to be paid by guests directly            

on the ferry.            

Sail away over the sea to our neighbouring island of Zakynthos, famous for its impressive

landscape and crystal clear blue waters. Take a dip in the sea near the famous beach of

Navajo, renowned for its impressive shipwreck and vertical white rock face. 

Cruise along by the Blue Caves to admire the unique scenery, keeping a watch out for sea turtles and monk seals before enjoying lunch in the picturesque port of Agios Nikolaos, relaxing on the beach or exploring the village.

We will travel by coach to the port of Poros to board the boat. 

Time of sailing is 09.00.

After approximately an hour we pass the Cape of Skinari, the closest point to Kefalonia.

From here to the shipwreck, the coastline is steep and rocky and very impressive. 

At approx. 10.30 – 10.45, we will arrive at the shipwreck beach. 

If for safety reasons we are not allowed to stop here, we will have a swim stop at another beach close by.

Approximately 11.45, we will be departing for the Blue Caves which is about a 20 min sail. It

is during this time that the monk seals may be spotted as we pass the sea caves. Thousands

of tourists visit these caves daily, to admire the unique scenery and to photograph the

amazing colours reflected onto the caves from underwater.

Our final stop after about 10 mins, is Agios Nikolaos, (Skinari). This is a small picturesque

village with a few shops and restaurants for those who want to eat, and also two tiny

beaches with free umbrellas for those wishing to swim afterwards. We will stay here for

approx. 2 hours.

An approximate 1 hour 15 min sail after a 14.30 departure from here will see us arriving

back into Poros port at approximately 15.45 where we will then return to the resorts by

coach.
