🌊 What to Expect on Your Ksamil Cave Snorkeling Tour
This tour begins with a peaceful boat ride along Ksamil’s unspoiled coastline, where emerald waters meet lush green hills. As you cruise past the famous islets and quiet bays, your local skipper will point out natural landmarks and share insights into the region’s rich marine and geological history. The ride itself is an experience—calming, scenic, and filled with panoramic views that set the tone for the adventure ahead.
Soon, your boat will approach a series of hidden caves, tucked into the rocky shoreline and only accessible by sea. These range from small, narrow grottoes that you can swim into, to larger, echoing caverns where the sound of waves bouncing off the stone creates a magical ambiance.
