You step onto the teak deck as the island tilts toward dusk, air warming from a day of Aegean sun and the boat easing away from the small port at Agios Sostis. Salt and olive-skin air mingle; ahead, the twin Myzithres rocks rise white against deep blue and the captain angles the bow toward Marathonisi’s shallow, turtle-shaped shore.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

You step onto the teak deck as the island tilts toward dusk, air warming from a day of Aegean sun and the boat easing away from the small port at Agios Sostis. Salt and olive-skin air mingle; ahead, the twin Myzithres rocks rise white against deep blue and the captain angles the bow toward Marathonisi’s shallow, turtle-shaped shore.
This stretch of Zakynthos has been shaped by uplifted limestone and relentless wave action: the Keri Caves are carved channels and arches cut where softer layers gave way, while Marathonisi’s sand and dunes owe their form to longshore currents and Posidonia seagrass beds. Culturally, the bay has long supported small-scale fishing and seasonal tourism; locals still ferry visitors and respect the nesting areas of the island’s iconic loggerhead (Caretta caretta).
On this four-hour cruise expect guided stops for swimming and snorkeling in crystal water, a short visit to Cameo Island’s bridge, and a glass of wine as the sun slides behind Myzithres. The captain will navigate close to arches and cliffs; sensitive zones around nesting beaches are cordoned off to protect turtle nests. There are no toilets on Marathonisi and limited facilities at sea, so plan accordingly.
Practical tips: wear swimwear under clothes, bring reef-safe sunscreen and a towel, and keep a light layer for the cool breeze after sunset. Timing is everything — arrive early to secure the best view on deck and listen to crew instructions to maximize safety and respect for protected habitats.
There are no toilets on Marathonisi and limited facilities on the boat; the tour stops before boarding to use land facilities—plan accordingly.
Some tours provide basic snorkel masks or you can bring your own for better fit and hygiene; confirm with the operator before boarding.
Alcoholic drinks are allowed only for guests 18 years and older in line with local regulations; soft drinks and bottled water are offered.
The experienced captain will navigate close to cave entrances and can pass through larger arches when sea and weather conditions permit, but access depends on safety and tide.
