Boat Tour from Lefkimmi to Blue Cave, Blue Lagoon, and Sivota
This 6.5-hour boat tour departs from Lefkimmi port, ideal for travelers seeking swimming, sightseeing, and local cuisine along the Greek mainland coast.
Description
Your tour begins at Lefkimmi port where you board the boat and set sail toward the Greek mainland, passing southwest Corfu landmarks including Kavos, Asprokavos, Arkoudilas, and part of Paxos island.
After 35 minutes, arrive at the Blue Cave. The captain steers the boat inside the cave, allowing a brief stop to appreciate the natural surroundings and take photos.
Next, pass Saint Nikolas island, home to the oldest lighthouse in the area. Then enjoy a long swimming stop at the Blue Lagoon. Jump from the boat into turquoise waters, snorkel, or use the waterslide at the back of the boat.
While you swim, the crew prepares a fresh BBQ lunch featuring local dishes such as souvlaki, chicken schnitzel, tzatziki, and Greek salad. Lunch includes a glass of local wine or a soft drink.
Following lunch, visit the fishing town of Sivota for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Explore local bars, tavernas, and shops along the seaside.
The tour continues along the coast, passing the Canal of Sivota, Zeris beach, and Dei beach. Then stop at Crystal Bay (known locally as Plakes Bay) for a one-hour swim at a secluded beach accessible only by boat. Swim, snorkel, use the waterslide, or visit a nearby small cave by swimming.
For non-swimmers, the onboard bar serves cocktails, draft beer, ciders, soft drinks, and ice cream. Music from the 80s, 90s, and 00s enhances the atmosphere.
The return trip to Lefkimmi allows time to relax, drive the boat, or enjoy music and dancing with the crew on the upper deck.
