Itinerary
The first stop is Xigia Beach, one of the most unique beaches on the island. Famous for its natural sulfur springs flowing directly from a sea cave, the water feels like a natural spa. Guests will have approximately 20 minutes to swim and enjoy the crystal-clear turquoise water.
The tour then continues to Kremidi, a small hidden bay unknown to most tourists. Even during high season, the area remains peaceful and almost private. Guests can swim here for around 20 minutes surrounded by untouched nature and spectacular scenery.
After the swim stops, the boat heads toward the famous Blue Caves. Thanks to the reduced dimensions of the boat, the captain can navigate inside the caves and show guests the incredible reflections and bright blue colours created by the sunlight on the water.
Sunset Aperitif The final and most magical part of the experience takes place just outside the northern tip of Zakynthos. Here the boat stops to admire the sunset as the sun slowly disappears into the Ionian Sea. During the sunset, guests are served an aperitivo onboard with Italian prosecco, water, Coca Cola and chips. This is the perfect moment for photos, relaxation and unforgettable views.

We took the sunset boat tour from Alykes to Cape Skinari and it was hands down a wonderful experience! The locations were absolutely breathtaking, but what truly made this trip unforgettable was our amazing captain. He went above and beyond for us, steering the boat inside every single cave we encountered along the way. On top of that, he was incredibly generous with his time—he even exceeded the scheduled tour duration just so we could watch the sun fully set and admire the stunning colors of the landscape at dusk. A truly magical tour with marvelous sights, made extra special by a phenomenal captain. Highly recommended!
Beautiful experience, the captain was very good, helpful, and kind. I recommend it!!!
We left at 6:00 PM from the port of Alikos, initially we went to the wrong point and immediately wrote to the yotomu customer service via WhatsApp, which quickly got in touch with us and contacted the captain about our arrival. Once we arrived, Captain Vasilis immediately made us feel at ease! He created a pleasant atmosphere and was very accommodating in stopping at the most scenic spots to take photos. After 3 bathroom stops and visiting some points along the way, we were served excellent Italian prosecco with a sunset view and some chips. Great price considering the tour plus the aperitif! Recommended for experiencing something different!
