I must for everyone. We did both the morning (ship wreck & blue caves) and afternoon (turtle island & Keri caves) trips and these were the highlight of two great weeks on Zakythos. Captain Spiros is a great host, shows considerable knowledge on the history of the sites & shows admirable concern for the environment we visited. His first though is often for the little ones, making sure they have plenty of shade, are first to see many of the sights, and all get a turn steering the boat.
On the afternoon trip we came across a loggerhead turtle apparently in some distress on the surface. As we got closer it became clear we were witnessing a turtle versus octopus 'scrap'. The octopus was trying to avoid the turtle's jaws by first hidding on the turtle's back, then it's neck & finally its belly. With the turtle tiring Spiros plus a few of us dived into to assist. As the turtle was distracted Spiro's dived down & snatched the octopus from the turtle's underbelly, A quick 'inside out' movement finished off the octopus & ensured someone had a fine BBQ.
Not sure you'll see this everytime, but these trips should not be missed.
