Best Beaches in Zakynthos

Zakynthos features a diverse coastline ranging from the dramatic limestone cliffs of Navagio Beach, home to the 1980 Panagiotis shipwreck, to the sulfur-rich waters of Xigia. The southern Vasilikos Peninsula and Laganas Bay serve as vital nesting grounds for the endangered Caretta caretta sea turtles, particularly at Gerakas and Dafni beaches. While the eastern shore features long, sandy stretches like Banana and Alykes with shallow waters, the western coast is characterized by rugged fjords and rocky inlets like Porto Roxa.
