Zákynthos (Zante), lies in the Ionian Sea, only 16 kilometers off the west coast of the Peloponnese. While the island’s northwest coast has steep cliffs plummeting down to rocky shores with white pebble beaches and crystal clear turquoise seas, the south is flatter with golden sand beaches.
The hinterland, in the center of the island, is a fertile plain planted with olive groves and woodland. The combination of beautiful scenery and good beaches has made Zákynthos a very popular tourist destination. Historically, it was under Venice from 1484 to 1797, and Venetian influence can still be felt in the architecture, cuisine, and dialect. Unfortunately, few of its old buildings have remained, due to two devastating earthquakes, in 1515 and 1953. Zakynthos Airport lies six kilometers south of Zákynthos town.
1 Zákynthos Town (Zante Town)
Zákynthos Town (Zante Town)
On the island’s east coast, extending in a wide arc along the gently sloping shores of a bay, Zákynthos Town is the capital of Zákynthos. Many of its Neoclassical buildings were demolished by the 1953 earthquake, but its paved streets and squares, filled with bakeries, cafés, boutiques, and jewelry stores, are still a joy to explore on foot. The town’s main church, Agios Dionysios, which houses the relics of the town’s patron saint, dates from 1708 and was reconstructed in 1954. For spectacular views over town and the port, go up to the village of Bohali (2.5 kilometers) to the ruined Venetian castle, set in a park with pine trees. This attraction was also largely destroyed by the earthquake, but you can still see the main gate (bearing the Lion of St. Mark, the symbol of Venice), the outer walls, and battlements.

2 Byzantine Museum
Byzantine Museum
On the main square in Zakynthos Town, this purpose-built museum displays religious icons, frescoes, and sculptures from the island’s churches and monasteries, dating from the 12th century onwards. There’s also a scale model of the town from around 1950, giving you some idea of how it looked before the devastating 1953 earthquake.
Address: Solomos Square, 29100 Zakynthos Town
3 Roma Mansion
Roma Mansion Heather Cowper / photo modified
Built in the in 1660s, this proud mansion is one of the few old buildings to have survived the 1953 earthquake. It is owned by the Roma family, who decided to renovate it and opened it to the public in 2007. Inside, you can see period furniture, paintings, and books, giving you some idea of how local aristocrats once lived.
Address: Louka Carrer 19, Ζakynthos Town 29100
4 Shipwreck beach (Navagio beach)
Shipwreck beach (Navagio beach)
Probably the most photographed beach in Greece, and also featuring in many Greek National Tourism Organisation advertisements, Shipwreck Beach lies in the so-called Smuggler’s Cove on Zakynthos’ west coast. Made up of fine white pebbles backed by cliffs, the beach takes its name from the wreck of a rusty ship that was transporting contraband cigarettes and was washed up here in 1980. The beach can only be accessed from the sea – you can take a taxi-boat from the harbor at Agios Nikolaos(on the northeast coast, 32 kilometers from Zakynthos Town) or visit it as part of a round-the-island one-day boat excursion from Zakynthos Town, offered by many tour operators. The beach does get extremely busy in peak season, but is quieter after 3pm when the day trippers leave.
5 Keri Caves
Keri Caves
On the southwest coast, 14 kilometers from Zákynthos Town, close to the village of Kerí, a row of dramatic caves opens directly onto a crystal clear turquoise sea. It’s possible to visit the caves as part of an organised excursion, or rent a boat and go independently. You can swim into the caves and snorkel or dive to see the amazing lighting effects as the sun reflects through the water and onto the cave walls.
6 Blue Caves
Blue Caves
On the northern tip of the island, at Cape Skinari, you’ll find the most spectacular so-called Blue Caves. Inside, the bright blue sea reflects the color of the sky, which is mirrored off the walls of the caves and creates magical azure and sapphire light. You can visit the Blue Caves in a small glass-bottom boat, which departs from Agios Nikolaos (on the northeast coast, 32 kilometers from Zakynthos Town), or as part of the longer round-the-island cruise from Zakynthos Town.
7 Zakynthos National Marine Park in Laganás Bay
Gerakas Beach
On the southeast coast, eight kilometers south of Zákynthos town, the wide bay of Laganás is home to several blissful stretches of sandy beach. Since the 1980s, it has been the island’s top resort, with budget accommodation attracting young visitors in search of sea, sun, and fun. However, locals are now being encouraged to develop eco-tourism here, as Laganás Bay is the breeding area for the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta). An endangered species, this timid creature lays its eggs in the sand in summer, and there are an estimated 1,300 loggerhead turtles living around the bay. In 1999, the Zakynthos National Marine Park was founded to protect wildlife in Laganás Bay and to limit access to certain areas of beach during the nesting season. To learn more, visit the park’s exhibition center in Dafni, at the east end of Laganas Bay.

8 Askos Stone Park
A must-do for animal lovers, Askos Stone Park is in the north of the island, close to the village of Volimes, 30 kilometers from Zakynthos Town. It’s highly recommended for children – animals here include deer, raccoons, peacocks, and tortoises, as well as a pony, a donkey, goats, and chickens. You get a map and a bottle of water with the entrance ticket, and there are attendants in the park who can explain where the animals are from and how to feed them.

9 Venetian Fortress
Like most of the islands of the Ionian Sea, Zakynthos was also protected by the foreign marine invaders by its dominant and enormous fortress. The Venetian Fortress of Zakynthos is located in the place of the ancient Acropolis of the island and has undergone a number a reconstructions, after consecutive destructive earthquakes. Except for the Venetian prisons, the gunpowder buildings, the English military barracks and other war-related constructions, the fortress also includes an important number of religious sites.
Venetian Fortress, Bochali, Zakynthos, Greece
10 Solomos Museum
Even if you don’t know a single Greek word, you should definitely pay a visit to the museum (here’s a Greek word!) that is dedicated to the Greek national poet, Dionysios Solomos. The museum was created in 1966 and includes the impressing graves of Dionysios Solomos and Andreas Kalvos, another great poet who was born on the island. It also includes portraits, manuscripts, books and objects that used to belong to Solomos and other important poets of Zakynthos.

Agios Dionysios, Voulgareos, Zakynthos, Greece
12 Βochali
Bochali is located on the highest point of the city of Zakynthos and just two kilometers away from it. It offers an amazing view of the city, its port and the Ionian Sea.

The best beaches in Zakynthos island, Greece
Navagio or shipwreck beach as it is often known is one of the most photographed beaches in Zante. The beach is dramatically dominated by the wreck of a freightliner, the MV Panagiotis which ran aground after a storm in 1980 and has laid abandoned in the brilliant white pebbled beach ever since. Located on the North West coast of Zante, Navigo is a white pebbled stretch of beach backed by towering white limestone cliffs. Access to the beach is only available by boat with the closest access port being Porto Vromi located to the south. Boats also depart from the Harbour of Saint Nikolas in Volimes, located to the north of Shipwreck beach and from island’s capital city of Zakynthos Town. There are no amenities or facilities on the beach so make sure you have all of the necessities including food, drink and an umbrella for shade with you before you depart.
Banana beach
Banana beach is the longest stretch of beach in Zante and boasts soft white sand and crystal clear water. Located 14 km or a 20-minute drive to the south of Zakynthos Town. The beach is quite commercial with plenty of operators offering sunbeds and umbrellas with bars and restaurants dotted along the length of the beach. Water sports are also hugely popular with everything from ringo rides to paragliding and jet skis. The water is relatively shallow, making it a great option for families with children. Getting there is a breeze, there is a free bus that departs Laganas, Kalamaki and Argassi daily. Public busses are also available throughout the day.
Makris Gialos beach
If snorkelling and diving are your thing then you should head straight to Makris Gialos beach. The secluded beach is located on the North East coast of the island about 30 km from Zakynthos Town. The water is deep, clean and crystal clear and there are caves that can be accessed from the beach which are great for snorkelling and diving adventurers. There is a nearby dive school for all diving needs. The beach is not too crowded as there are no facilities or amenities. The water at Makris Gialos beach gets very deep very quickly so it is not the best option for children but great for adventurers or couples looking to escape to a beautiful secluded beach for the day. The beach is located a short walk down from a main road and there is car parking available.
Agios Nikolaos beach
Confusingly, there are two beaches in Zante with the same name. One is a quiet secluded beach on the North East coast and the second, more popular beach is on the Vassilikos peninsular not far from the well-known Banana beach. The southern Agios Nikolaos or Saint Nikolaos beach is named because of a quaint little chapel on the hill at the far end of the beach. The beach has fine golden sand set against calm blue water, drawing in visitors in their multitudes. Facilities are plentiful and the beach is often crowded. Beach front bars play music throughout the day and the water is a hive of activity with water sports for adventure seekers.
Gerakas beach
Confusingly, there are two beaches in Zante with the same name. One is a quiet secluded beach on the North East coast and the second, more popular beach is on the Vassilikos peninsular not far from the well-known Banana beach. The southern Agios Nikolaos or Saint Nikolaos beach is named because of a quaint little chapel on the hill at the far end of the beach. The beach has fine golden sand set against calm blue water, drawing in visitors in their multitudes. Facilities are plentiful and the beach is often crowded. Beach front bars play music throughout the day and the water is a hive of activity with water sports for adventure seekers.
Gerakas beach
Laganas beach is arguably one of the most popular beaches on Zante due to the abundance of facilities and close location to the lively resort area. There is a fun buzzing party vibe and it is hugely popular for young fun loving visitors. The beach is mostly backed by restaurants and bars so you are spoiled for choice when it comes to eating and drinking. Sunbeds and umbrellas are dotted all up and down the busy stretch of sandy beach and there are lots of water sport options. If you have young children or are after a quiet relaxing day at the beach then Laganas is possibly not the best option. If you want to party in the sun and continue on into the night at the nearby bars and clubs then Laganas is your beach. Laganas is easily accessible by bus. Car parking near the beach is limited although you may find parking within walking distance.
Cameo Island
On Laganas beach there is a wooden bridge that leads to Cameo island, a popular wedding destination spot with a small beach and a beach bar.
Tsilivi beach
Tsilivi beach is one of Zante’s busiest and liveliest beaches. Tsilivi is a busy resort area so the beach does get crowded at peak times.Located on the East coast about 6 km from Zakynthos Town, the long beach is mostly sandy with a few pebbled patches here and there. Resorts and hotels line the beach and most have sun beds and umbrellas in front of them. There are lots of water sport activities as well as many bar and restaurant options. The water is clean and shallow making is a great choice for families. There are many flat access points to the beach with no steps so it is a really good option for those with babies.
Porto Zoro beach
Porto Zoro is a pretty little beach on the east side of the Vassilikos Peninsular dominated by two large rocky outcrops. The water is deep blue and the surrounding lush green vegetation makes for a beautiful natural contrast. Sunbeds and umbrellas line the narrow sand and pebble beach. The beach is quiet and serene as it is away from the main resort areas, however, this means that the nearby bars and restaurants can be a little pricey. The beach is accessed by a long, steep, narrow road which is off the main road from Vassilikos to Argassi. There is plenty of space nearby for car parking.
Alykes beach
Named after the vast salt flats that lie behind the beach and village, Alykes is a long narrow stretch of sand and pebble beach. Situated 20km North West of Zakynthos Town, it is quieter than some of the beaches closer to the resort areas. Alykes beach has all of the facilities that you could want, sun beds, umbrellas, snack bars and restaurants. There are quiet stretches of beach without sun beds if you want to lie on the beach undisturbed. The water is warm and shallow and access to the beach is flat with no steps making it ideal for families with children. Wind surfing and water skiing are hugely popular activities.
Kalamaki beach
This quiet shallow stretch of sandy beach is great if you have small children. It is not uncommon to see Loggerhead sea turtles lolling around in the warm shallow water. Due to Kalamaki being a protected nesting ground, visitors are not allowed on the beach before sunrise or after sunset. Pedalos are available to hire by the hour and are great for getting a closer look at the resident turtles. Apart from pedalos, no other water sports are not allowed in order to protect the turtles that call the stretch of beach home. There are the usual snack bars, sunbeds and umbrellas available but no bars serving alcoholic drinks. The location is 8km south of Zakynthos Town and best accessed by car or taxi. Kalamaki beach is only 2 km from Zane airport so planes often fly low directly over the beach.
Zante has an absolute multitude of beautiful beaches dotted around the picturesque island, we have highlighted a few of the more visited beaches. One thing for sure is whether you want to relax in the sun all day, go to lively beach parties that carry on late into the night, explore unspoilt coves, take part in adventurous water sports or discover fascinating sea life while snorkelling, Zante is the ideal destination for your next beach holiday.
