City: Zakynthos (Zante)

Zakynthos, known to the Venetians as 'The Flower of the Levant', is an island of overwhelming natural beauty. It's an Ionian paradise where steep white cliffs plunge into electric blue waters, and where golden sand beaches serve as a sanctuary for Caretta-Caretta sea turtles. Famous throughout the world for the iconic Shipwreck Beach (Navagio), Zakynthos is an island of two faces: on the one hand, a natural paradise of sea caves, rock arches and lush vegetation; on the other, a vibrant party center in places like Laganas. It is a destination that promises unforgettable postcards, encounters with nature and contagious vacation energy.
