This 90-minute evening trip is a continuous sightseeing cruise in a traditional wooden boat. It enters or approaches a sequence of caves, passes boat-access beaches and positions for sunset. Swimming is expressly prohibited, so guests who want water time should choose a different Paleokastritsa product.

The numbers describe viewing, not landings

The live page advertises six sea caves and seven hidden beaches, including the Blue Eye and Paradise/Chomi. It does not say passengers disembark at those beaches. In ninety minutes, these are coastal features viewed from the vessel while the captain manages distance, cave clearance and the sunset schedule.

Cave viewing depends on the captain’s safety judgement and the evening sea state.

Sunset is the final phase, not a guaranteed colour

The route moves among offshore rocks as daylight falls. Cloud can obscure the solar disc even when the cruise operates, and the captain may alter the course in unsafe weather. Local white wine, juice and water are included; smoking is not allowed.

The viewing position can be planned; cloud cover and colour cannot.

Operation requires a minimum group

At least six participants are required for the departure to run. If that threshold is not met, the provider offers another time or date or a refund under the live terms. This is therefore not a private cruise. Arrive 10–15 minutes early at Agios Spyridon beach beside Vrachos restaurant.

The shared wooden boat is designed for a compact coastal circuit rather than a beach transfer.

For a long beach landing, compare the Stelari beach and cave trip. More vessel choices appear in the Corfu boat-tour guide.
