Zakynthos travel guide
Zakynthos, also known as Zante, is the third largest Greek island in the Ionian Sea. Holidaymakers book flights to Zakynthos to enjoy its beautiful sandy beaches and explore its lush vineyards and wooded forests. The fertile soil around Zante means that the island has an agricultural background, of which many of the traditions are kept alive today.
Its unspoilt beaches and warm seas attract more than just holidaymakers though; the island is also home to the endangered species of sea turtle, Carreta-Carreta. Many tourists book flights to Zakynthos specially to see the magnificent turtles in their natural habitat. The turtles descend upon the beaches of Laguna and Geraka to lay their eggs during the nesting season around June and July, and their presence ensures that many of the island’s beaches have been declared protected areas, preserving their natural beauty for turtle and tourist alike.
