Welcome to the island of Zakynthos

Explore Zakynthos individually

Zakynthos stands for more than beach vacations. Zakynthos is called "Fior di Levante", flower of the east. Already the Venetians, who ruled here for three centuries, recognized the scenic beauty of the island. 

Zakynthos looks particularly green to visitors. Wide plains as well as gentle hills and mountains invite to hiking. The vegetation is dense. In many places you can find olive groves and pretty vineyards. The idyllic picture is rounded off by picturesque mountain villages.

The north of Zákynthos is particularly quiet. Here you will find tourists who are looking for silence and relaxation. 

While on Ios and Kos you will find with party vacations. Rhodes and Crete with family vacations, the island of Zakynthos offers both. Most beaches and towns are located along the south and east coasts. The west and north coasts are very mountainous and mostly uninhabited. 

The beautiful white cliffs that drop steeply into the azure sea towards Keri are a highlight. The water is wonderfully clear and it is worth hiring a boat to visit these sights.

Explore Zákynthos Town by hired car

Visiting the Byzantine Museum

A visit to Zákynthos Town is a must for all vacationers. In 1953 a big earthquake hit the town. At least many art treasures could be saved. The reconstruction took place with the inclusion of historical building plans. The town was able to preserve its old face.

Today Zákynthos Town is a mixture of adapted new buildings and reconstructed architecture.

Among the most important sights of Zákynthos Town are the Monastery of Agios Dionisios, whose campanile, visible from afar, resembles the bell tower of San Marco in Venice. Also visit the Byzantine Museum. You will have a unique opportunity to follow the development of Ionian painting.

An idyllic place to watch the sunset, the city at dusk and at night, and the stars is the top of the hill in Bohali. It opens a panoramic view of the entire bay and the twinkling lights of Zakynthos town.
