Approaching the Blue Caves at the north part of the island of Zakynthos.

Some lucky guys use fast and small boats for exploring the Caves. I took this shot from Agios Nikolaos area, during our daily cruize around the island.

Infos about the Blue Caves:
The Blue Caves on the northern tip of the island are one of the top tourist attractions on Zante, along with the shipwreck in Smugglers Cove. The caves themselves are a number of geological formations in the cliffs below Cape Skinari and take their name from the blue colour of the water, caused by the effect of the sunlight on the water. The caves can only be reached by sea and there are endless amounts of boat operators (from almost any point on the island) that are willing to transfer you by coach to a boat that takes you to the caves. A sight seeing must.

A nice approach to showing the subject, the yacht is nice to look at too.
