Home to one of the finest beaches in the world, according to Cond Nast Traveller magazine, the Greek island of Zakynthos was named the “Flower of the East” by the Venetians, who ruled it during the Middle Ages. You’ve probably seen the iconic photo plenty of times before of Shipwreck Beach, where the Greek authorities chased a freight liner in 1981, which was carrying contraband on board, including wine and cigarettes. This beach, Navagio, which is also called Smugglers Cove, is one of the most photographed of the Greek Islands.
Long regarded as one of the most beautiful Greek Islands, Zakynthos or Zante, has a wonderfully diverse landscape. Dramatic cliffs crown the azure Ionian sea, guarding romantic coves, and gorgeous beaches, on some of which you can find protected turtles. Vineyards and olive groves are dotted around the island.
