Overview

On this half-day boat trip, you’ll cruise along the coast to see this famous spot, discover secret coves, swim and soak up the scenery.

After pick-up, enjoy a scenic drive to Porto Vromi – it takes up to 90 minutes – and hop on a boat towards Smuggler’s Cove. You’ll have half an hour or so to take in the vistas from the deck before the imposing white cliffs appear, sheltering the cove and its famous wreck. The 200-metre-high cliffs curve and swoop down behind the beach, dwarfing the shipwreck.

Next, your captain will drop anchor at a nearby bay, and you’ll have time to swim in the dazzling waters surrounded by Zante’s coastal landscapes. Then, as we cruise back towards Porto Vromi, your captain will take you to a white-pebbled beach, a place so secret it doesn’t even show up on Google. Cool off with a swim stop here and hear the story of the ‘Poseidon’s Face’ – a rock formation believed to depict Poseidon, God of the sea – before setting off for the final leg back to shore.
