Zakynthos (Zante), the third largest of the Ionian Islands, features one of the most famous beaches in the world, Navagio Beach. The Shipwreck Cove, accessible only by boat, is framed by white limestone cliffs rising up to 200 meters high, with the rusted wreck of the MV Panagiotis resting on dazzling white sand in the center. The turquoise water and dramatic backdrop make Navagio the most photographed beach in Greece — the viewpoint above the cliff offers the iconic bird's-eye view.

The Blue Caves at the northern tip of the island impress with natural rock arches and caves where sunlight transforms the water into an unreal blue. Boat tours from Agios Nikolaos or Porto Vromi lead to both the caves and Navagio Beach. The Bochali viewpoint above Zakynthos Town offers a magical view over the city and the Ionian Sea at sunset.

Zakynthos is one of the most important nesting sites for the endangered loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) in the Mediterranean. In the Zakynthos Marine Park on the southern coast (Laganas Bay), the beaches are strictly protected, and with a bit of luck, you can observe these gentle giants while snorkeling. The mountainous hinterland surprises with traditional villages like Volimes and Kampi, olive groves, and the Anafonitria Monastery. The local cuisine offers specialties such as Skordostoumbi (garlic eggplant) and freshly caught fish in the taverns by the harbor.
