What Is There to Do in Zakynthos?
Life on Zakynthos revolves around the sea, but that's only part of the story. Set out by boat to explore the island's spectacular coastline, watch the changing colours dance across the water inside the Blue Caves, or seek out secluded swimming spots tucked beneath soaring cliffs. Inland, traditional villages, hillside monasteries and olive-covered landscapes reveal a slower side to the island, while guided wildlife excursions offer the chance to observe loggerhead turtles in their natural habitat. Browse our Zakynthos experiences, or speak to our Villa Specialists to create a personalised Zakynthos itinerary tailored to your interests.
How to Get to Zakynthos

"I’m very proud of my island’s long wine-making traditions so I’d recommend a winery tour with a driver. After tasting the wines of the Goumas family, you can move on to the Ambelostrates vineyard for a second tasting and a delicious meze lunch."
