Visite de la tortue de Zante en petit groupe Observation des tortues et île aux tortues
Description
Évitez les bateaux bondés et profitez d'une visite détendue des tortues en petit groupe à Zante. Avec seulement quelques invités à bord, il y a de l'espace pour se détendre et vivre une expérience plus personnelle avec un skipper local sympathique. Nous explorons le parc marin de Zante, où les tortues sont souvent vues à proximité du bateau. Si les conditions le permettent et que c’est sécuritaire, vous aurez peut-être même la chance de nager près d’eux. Vous visiterez également des plages cachées et des grottes marines, et grâce au bateau plus petit, nous pourrons entrer dans certaines grottes pour découvrir de près l’eau bleue superbe. Cette visite est idéale pour ceux qui recherchent un groupe plus petit, un rythme détendu et une expérience bien organisée du début à la fin, y compris les clients visitant Zante en bateau de croisière. Veuillez noter : En vertu du droit maritime grec, chaque passager - y compris les enfants et les nourrissons - doit être compté comme un siège complet. Cela nous permet de garder les groupes petits et confortables. Pour rendre l'expérience plus accessible aux familles, nous offrons des tarifs réduits pour les plus jeunes.
Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Chaque année, des centaines de tortues marines Caretta Caretta émigrent vers les côtes de Zante. Cette visite vous donne l'occasion idéale de les voir nager dans leur habitat naturel. Notre petit bateau ne dérange ni n'éclipse les tortues. Ils nagent souvent joyeusement à côté du bateau sans savoir que nous sommes là. Cela vous donne la tranquillité d'esprit en sachant que nous ne les dérangeons pas. cela nous permet également la vue parfaite et des photographies de vacances. Plus Si votre capitaine pense que c'est sans danger pour vous et les tortues, il vous permettra de sauter et de nager paisiblement à leurs côtés, vous offrant une expérience que vous n'oublierez jamais.
Vous explorerez les grandes grottes et criques de Keri, où vous vous arrêterez pour une baignade dans les eaux bleues cristallines. L'un des avantages d'utiliser un petit bateau est que vous pouvez réellement entrer dans les grottes - quelque chose de plus gros bateaux ne peut pas faire. À l'intérieur, vous assisterez à des reflets spectaculaires de la lumière du soleil sur les eaux profondes, les rendant bleu vif. Si vous vous sentez aventureux, vous pouvez même nager à travers un petit tunnel de liaison entre les grottes.
Plus communément appelé 'Turtle Island.' Non seulement c'est une plage de nidification importante pour les tortues marines, mais l'île a également la forme d'une tortue mère géante! Vous naviguerez autour de l'île de la Tortue en découvrant ses petites grottes et ses plages cachées avant de vous arrêter sur sa principale belle plage pour bronzer, vous baigner et peut-être même vous régaler dans l'un des bars flottants proposant des boissons fraîches et des glaces.

The trip was fantastic. We could not fault it from beginning to end. It was worth every penny with the pick up included. The trip was exactly as described, the length was slightly longer than advertised which was fantastic. There was only 7 people on the boat including us and the tour guide. Pantelis was our guide and he was fantastic, he had lots of knowledge which added to the experience. He was so friendly and we got to see a number of sea turtles. The caves were brilliant and the guide took photos for us with the beautiful views. We couldn’t recommend this enough, everything was just fantastic and we had the most amazing time! Swimming in the most crystal like seas added to the experience! It was very intimate and a lot less crowded than other boat tours we looked at.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an incredible review! 🐢💙 We’re absolutely delighted that you enjoyed the whole experience from beginning to end and felt it was worth every penny. We’re especially pleased that you appreciated the included pickup, the relaxed small-group atmosphere and the extra time spent out on the water. Seeing several sea turtles, exploring the beautiful caves and swimming in the crystal-clear sea sounds like the perfect Zakynthos day! 🌊☀️📸 Pantelis will be thrilled to hear your lovely comments. He takes great pride in sharing his knowledge, looking after every guest and helping everyone capture some special memories along the way 😊 Thank you again for choosing us and for recommending the tour so highly. We would love to welcome you back for another adventure in Zakynthos one day! 🇬🇷🐢💙 Best wishes, Ian & the Boat Share Greece team 🇬🇷
We had a super nice morning with Captain Padelis. 3-hour boat tour, relaxed and never boring. He picked us up from the hotel and brought us to the harbor. We saw the first turtle right after 10 minutes on the water. Padelis knows a lot about the turtles; we learned a lot, experienced a lot, and laughed a lot. We were able to swim with a female turtle for a long time. Only the beach on Turtle Island can be skipped. We continued on to the Keri Caves, and some of us even jumped into the sea from a high rock. If you go with Padelis, you are really lucky; we can only recommend the tour!
Vielen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung! 💙 Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie einen so schönen Vormittag auf dem Wasser verbracht haben. Pantelis wird sich sehr über Ihre netten Worte freuen – seine Leidenschaft für Zakynthos und den Schutz der Meeresschildkröten macht jede Tour zu etwas Besonderem. 🐢 Vielen Dank für Ihre Empfehlung. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei Boat Share Greece begrüßen zu dürfen! 🇬🇷☀️ Ian & das Boat Share Greece Team
Fantastic communication from Ian, introduced us to our skipper Dimitri who was brilliant throughout the boat trip. Dimitri was very knowledgeable, friendly & passionate about the trip. We saw turtles & even snorkelled near them. We went with our friends so there was seven of us on our own boat. It felt like a private charter. If you want a more personal experience then I would definitely recommend this trip.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 💙 It was a pleasure welcoming you all aboard. We're delighted you enjoyed Dimitri's company—he truly loves sharing the beauty of Zakynthos with our guests. 🐢 Seeing turtles in their natural habitat and giving your group that private charter feel is exactly what we aim for. We hope to welcome you back again soon! ☀️🇬🇷 Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team
We had a really great experience and Dimitrius, our guide, was excellent. He had a great knowledge of the area and shared experiences with us. The whole trip felt like a private tour and the communication with Ian was great throughout.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🐢🌊 We're delighted you enjoyed your time with Dimitri and that his local knowledge helped make the experience so special. It means a lot to hear the tour felt like a private experience—that's exactly what we aim for with our small groups. Thank you for your kind words about our communication too. We hope to welcome you back to Zakynthos one day! Warm regards, Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team 🇬🇷
What a wonderful experience! We saw several turtles before travelling to Marathonisi for a swim - we didn’t buy anything from the snack boats but they looked fun, if a little pricey. Keri caves were stunning and the trip along the coast with another swimming stop in a beautiful cove finished everything off nicely. The small boat made it comfortable and peaceful and the skipper was brilliant. Absolutely worth it.!

Pantelis who also turned out to be the captain of our boat picked us up at specified time at our hotel reception. This trip was probably the highlight of our holiday. Pantelis must be a turtle whisper as we got to see over 10 turtles, some floating to the surface and popping their heads up and others resting on the seabed. The swim stops were amazing, as were some of the caves our small boat managed to get into and the water colours were unreal! Pantelis was happy to take photos and videos of us swimming in the crystal clear blue water. Would definitely recommend this small boat tour where only 6 of us were on the boat. Looking forward to booking again should we return to the island next year.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🐢💙 We're absolutely delighted to hear that our tour was the highlight of your holiday. There is no better compliment we could receive! We had to smile at your comment about Pantelis being the "turtle whisperer." 😊 We honestly don't know how he does it either, but seeing over 10 turtles in a single trip made for a truly unforgettable experience. We're also so pleased you enjoyed our small group tour with only six guests on board. Keeping our groups small is exactly what Boat Share Greece is all about, allowing everyone to enjoy a more personal, relaxed experience with plenty of time to appreciate the incredible caves, crystal-clear waters and amazing wildlife. Pantelis and all of us at Boat Share Greece would be truly honoured to welcome you back to Zakynthos one day for another adventure. Warmest regards, Ian Boat Share Greece 🇬🇷 🐢
Brilliant, couldn't fault from start to finish. Would highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Wendy! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🐢💙 We're absolutely delighted to hear you had such a brilliant experience from start to finish. It was a pleasure having you on board, and we're so pleased you enjoyed your time with Pantelis exploring the beautiful Zakynthos coastline. 🌊☀️ Thank you for taking the time to recommend us—it means the world to our small family business and will help future guests choose the right tour. We hope to welcome you back to Zakynthos again one day! 🇬🇷😊 Best wishes, Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team 🇬🇷
Excellent communication and a great team. There were only 5 of us on the boat, and it was worth every penny. We got some lovely photos and we were lucky to see a few turtles.
Thank you very much for your lovely review! 😊 We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your afternoon with us and that you appreciated the small group experience. Seeing turtles in their natural habitat is always a special moment, and we're so pleased you managed to capture some great photos too! 🐢📸 Thank you for choosing Boat Share Greece. We hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday and we'd love to welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes, Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team 🇬🇷
Our private pickup from the AluaSoul hotel in Tragaki required an extra cash fee of €10 per person paid directly to the driver since we were outside their usual zone. We picked up one more family en route, making a comfortable total of seven passengers (including the skipper). The boat was great—featuring a back bench, a front seating/sunbathing area, and a shaded canopy. What to Bring (Top Tips) The tour operators asked us to bring our own drinks, snacks, towels, and sun cream. Crucially, you should wear your swimwear under your clothes, as there is nowhere on board to change! The Experience Within five minutes of setting off, we spotted our first turtles. Our skipper was fantastic, carefully adhering to ethical wildlife rules and finding a safe spot away from other boats for some of the group to jump in. If you get in the water, note that the turtles are much harder to spot while swimming than they are from the boat deck; those in our group were wearing goggles rather than snorkels, and those of us remaining on the boat had to keep pointing them in the right direction! Next, we explored various caves, swam off beautiful beaches, and spent about 30 minutes on Turtle Island. The island's turtle nests are all safely fenced off with wooden frames. There are also snack boats anchored there selling drinks, ice cream, and snacks (accepting both cash and card) if you run out of your own supplies. We even spotted a few more turtles back at the harbour before being driven back to our hotels. Excluding transfers, the entire trip lasted about 4 hours. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a respectful and memorable turtle-spotting tour!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed and helpful review. We're delighted that you enjoyed your experience, and we're sure your insights will help many future guests know exactly what to expect from our tour. 🐢 We're especially pleased that you noticed our skipper's respectful approach to the turtles and their behaviour. We always do our best to observe them responsibly while giving our guests the best possible experience. We also had to smile when we read that you were helping point the turtles out to the guests in the water! 😊 It's lovely to hear everyone was looking out for one another and enjoying the experience together. Thank you once again for choosing Boat Share Greece. We hope you made many wonderful memories in Zakynthos and would love to welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes, Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team 🇬🇷
Amazing tour with a reliable and patient captain. We saw a turtle at the very start of the tour, and even swam with it for a while! There were only 5 guests on the boat. And with the small boat, we were able to enter many blue caves along the shore, and did swimming/snorkeling in 2 or 3 of them. Snorkeling equipment and lifejackets were provided on the boat as well.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review! 🐢💙 We're absolutely delighted that you enjoyed your time with us and that you were lucky enough to spot a turtle right at the beginning of the tour – those moments are always so special! 😊 It's wonderful to hear that you appreciated the benefits of our small-group experience. Keeping our tours small allows us to explore the beautiful blue caves, enjoy more swimming and snorkelling stops, and give every guest a more personal and relaxed experience. 🌊🤿 A huge thank you as well for your kind words about our captain. We pride ourselves on creating unforgettable experiences while always treating Zakynthos' incredible marine life with the respect it deserves. 🫶🐢 We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back on board the next time you're visiting our beautiful island! 🇬🇷☀️ Warm regards, Ian & the Boat Share Greece Team 🇬🇷🚤
