About Keri Caves
Keri Caves is a shallow Zakynthos cave-and-arch dive on the Cape Marathia side of the island. It is more about swim-through passages, clear water, and the atmosphere of the rock shapes than about big depth, so the best dives stay slow, simple, and careful with the exits. The site works well as a scenic boat-accessed dive where the cave geometry does most of the work.
