Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Will we definitely see turtles?

Common but not guaranteed — wild animals in their natural habitat. Morning departures offer the highest likelihood of sightings.

What's the difference from the 3-hour National Marine Park tour?

The Extended tour gives you an extra hour, adds a third swimming stop at Mizithres Rocks, and takes you deeper into the Keri Cave system. See the comparison table above for the full breakdown.
