Blue Grotto

Reviewed By bobj378 - London, United Kingdom

We went with Kastellorizo cruises Barbara Boat and we had Captain George at the helm who showed us all the sights before and after we visited the blue grotto, which has to be the best in the Mediterranean and we were lucky enough to see a seal in the grotto.

After visiting Andros for a number of years I finally was able to organise a visit to the cave The 10 minute walk was definitely worth it!!! The guides (all young local people with loads of enthusiasm) were both polite and informative The caves are brilliant and you can touch the amazing natural designs Old and young loved the experience

Cave Archangel Michael Panormitis

Reviewed By arrowisland - Bury St. Edmunds, United Kingdom

We walked into Rhodes and stopped by here on the way. I wear a st Michael pendant everyday so for me it was nice to visit here as is he patron saint of the armed forces and police. The views from here are beautiful and the cave is very interesting.

The Cave of Antiparos

Reviewed By sge31 - Sheffield, United Kingdom

You can get here in the 'Antiparos' boat that leaves Parikia Port on Paros every hour or so. It takes around 20 minutes and costs 5 Euros from Paros to Antiparos on the boat, and for some reason 4 Euros to come back to Paros on certain crossings such as the 5.30pm. But beware the latest entrance time to the cave is 2.30pm and the caves close at 3pm. Don't ask me why! Also the bus that takes you from Antiparos port to the caves stops running around 1pm. The only other option apart from hiring a car or bike is to catch a taxi up to the cave. It takes around 15 minutes by car (you go past Tom Hanks house!) and cost us 16 Euros. If you are with other people who also didn't realise the buses have stopped by 1pm then suggest sharing a cab as we did! The cave is amazing! It says there are 411 steps down to the bottom but it really didn't feel like that many, although your legs will probably start to tremble as ours did! The stalagtites and stalagmites are amazing, the scale and shape of the cave is a sight to behold. There are also amazing views of the bay from the entrance of the cave as you can see from my photo. Highly recommended but arrive before 1pm if you want to get there by bus!

Cave of Zeus

Reviewed By munzerq2015 - Sun Valley, United States

Mountain Zeus sits 1003 meters high and the cave is at 600 meters high or 1950 feet. First the drive to the cave is a bit treacherous narrow without guardrails. You park on the mountain side with just enough room for one car to pass. The hike to the cave is half wonderful with steps and path and the other half is a climb thru the rocks, for sure doable. But it is more than 20 minutes Once you are at the cave it is cool. The cave is huge and very cool. Before and after the climb enjoy the running spring water from a faucet by the steps. We did it.
