Trust me when I say that Greece is a special place! Not only does it have some incredibly historic cities like Athens, but it also has a load of epic places dotted all across the country. That being said, for me, it’s the stunning Greek islands that are totally beautiful and can’t be missed on any trip to Greece. This is especially true when it comes to all the best things to do in Zakynthos – an Ionian Greek Island that’s just stunning to visit.
We’ve spent quite a bit of time in Zakynthos and it really lives up to the hype; especially its beautiful coastline! In fact, I’d go as far as saying it’s one of my favourite coastlines in all of Greece.
So, to help you along your merry way to explore Zakynthos, I wanted to share some of our favourite spots that you really shouldn’t miss; especially if you’re planning to drive or boat around the island.

Yup, it almost looks unreal! Navagio Beach is one spot in Zakynthos that’s known all across the Mediterranean. It’s incredibly beautiful, dramatic and downright blissful.

Prices vary significantly and can be anything from around €30 euro for a small group boat and a tour, to around €750 for a boat that we rented with a skipper to drive us around for the whole day.
Most tours suggest heading to Navagio Beach in the morning, but if you really want to see much fewer crowds then head here an hour or two before sunset.
It’s significantly quieter but you might not get the same beautiful blues that you see when the sun is high in the sky. It’s all a matter of preference and what’s important to you most.

2.) Navagio Beach View
If a boat trip doesn’t sound like your thing, head to the very top of the cliff and stop for a gorgeous sunset view across the Ionian Sea. It’s truly incredible and, after seeing Navagio Beach from above (at Navagio Beach View) and below, this is my very favourite spot.
Best of all, it’s pretty easy to drive to this viewpoint and there’s a little bit of…
