Parks and nature in Zakynthos
10 best parks & nature in Zakynthos

Sandy beach, Cliff
Navagio Beach will be closed to entry for the entire 2025 summer season due to dangerous rockslides.

Cave
Probably the most unique natural phenomenon of Zante can be found in its north. The Blue Caves are actually white, the sea is blue, and it is the limestone rocks and the sun's rays that make them glow a beautiful colour. The best conditions are in the early morning and mid-morning when the light refracts so that the water turns a bright turquoise, glistening and shimmering.

On the western side of Zakynthos you will find dozens of small and hidden beaches. A typical example of such a beach with turquoise and clear sea water is Porto Limnionas.
