KERI CAVES

One of the most popular collections of sea caves and rock arches found off the coast of the Marthia Village on Zakynthos Island. These mesmerising formations are only accessible by boat or jet ski and are also known as the Keri Grotto. The crystal clear water has a depth of approximately 20 metres which allows boats to get up close and personal with the caves, many trips also anchor next to the caves. 

 

These swim stops allow you to swim into the cave to admire their unusual shapes, array of white hues and soak up the rich in sulphur sea water. Zakynthos Island is known for having water that is rich in both collagen and sulphur, thanks to the numerous natural springs that flow into the surrounding sea. Making the water around the island perfect for relaxing in while getting a free spa treatment for your skin!

Cape of Marthia is another favoured stop along the boat trips offered around the island. The spectacular rock cliffs provide the perfect backdrop for pictures, snorkelling, sunbathing and relaxing. The stark contrast between sky blue seas and white rocks makes for an unforgettable experience.
