Known in Italian as Zante, Zakynthos is the third largest island in the Ionian Sea. Located off the western coast of mainland Greece, the island is a picturesque mix of relaxing beaches and fun activities that will win over even the most pernickety traveller.
The southern and eastern coasts of the island are well-developed with hotels and restaurants along the beaches and plenty of activities.
The northern and western coasts have little to no development, and are known for their dramatic mountains and treacherous sheer cliff drops.With its postcard views, miles of beautiful beaches, and variety of sights and activities, it’s no wonder why Zante is one of the most popular Greek destinations.
