- Marathonísi - Enchanting Island of Marathonisi islet Stop for Swimming at beautiful Sandy Beach.
Marathonissi is a small private island in the turtles’ bay close to Limni Kerì’s beach.
Until the second world war the island was lived, today it has neither inhabitants nor buildings.
It is now one of the areas where the CARETTA CARETTA turtles go to breed.
- Keri Caves - First Stop will be at Keri Caves - Amazing place First Stop for Swimming
Kerì Caves, accessible only by sea with private boats or our excursions, develop along the promontory of Marathia Cape, in the South-West area of the island.
Along the coast there are many caves which entrances scarcely suffice to get in swimming, others are broad enough to enter directly with a boat.
It is very easy to reach the caves that are surmounted by cliffs where the sea is very deep and as such reachable.
- Laganas - Turtle Spotting: Starting with Turtles Spotting just out in the Laganas Bay
The Caretta Caretta Turtle is a specimen still living in the Mediterranean and it is possible to meet it there since it spawns along the beaches of the Laganas Gulf.
They can have considerable dimensions (the largest weights 140 kg. and measures circa 120 cm whereas the smallest measures 80 cm.) but, in spite of this, they are very fast.
Thanks to the big anterior and the stiff posterior fins they can reach 30km/hour and so protect themselves from possible dangers.
