The Greek island of Zakynthos is a full option destination, ready to satisfy the tastes of any tourist. Taking a detour from East to West, you will discover luxurious resorts that are full with tourists, picturesque seaside towns, then natural landscapes with hard-to-penetrate forests, rocky shores and clear, emerald-colored waters. It is the third largest island in the Ionian Sea and has everything you need for a vacation you never dared to dream of.
If Ios and Kos are known for parties, and Crete and Rhodes for their family atmosphere, Zakynthos chose to elegantly combine the two, adding to all this an extraordinarily beautiful and as pristine natural setting. Imagine that the island is organized in several "neighborhoods", each of them having its own distinct character.
When you feel like having fun, you take a walk to the East, when you want to rest you retreat to the South, and when you feel like having an adventure you go to the West or the North-West. It used to be a mining island, but today it seems to exist only to delight tourists. The island is very close to the Greek coast and has its own airport, so it is very accessible to anyone.

The peak of the season is, of course, in the months of June - July - August, but sometimes the temperatures are high.
For lower prices and a quieter atmosphere, we recommend planning your vacation in September, when the weather is good, the sea water is usually warm.

You can go there with one of the lower boats, and the price is affordable. You can swim and take wonderful photos here.
Bohali guarantees the best panoramic views of the island.
Located on top of a hill above the harbor, it was a neighborhood of aristocrats during the Venetian domination and has retained its unique character even today.
If you climb above the old houses, you will discover the ruins of a Venetian castle, the perfect place to see how the sun sets in the sea.
It covers 135 km2 and is home to countless species of marine animals and plants, some of which are endangered, such as the Caretta turtle.
Caretta turtles are currently one of the oldest living species on Earth, surviving for more than 40 million years.
However, they are in danger of extinction precisely because of the tourists who invade their mating area and destroy their eggs buried in the sand.
Even if the locals and tour operators invite you to "study" or "admire" the turtle colonies, do your best to avoid these activities and not bother them at all.
