Shipwreck Bay from the cliffs, the Blue Caves by boat and turtles nesting on protected beaches.

Zakynthos is known for Navagio, the shipwreck beach below sheer white cliffs, and for the Blue Caves on the north coast, both best seen by boat. The bay of Laganas is a marine park where loggerhead turtles nest, the west coast is steep and quiet with villages among the olives, and the town of Zakynthos was rebuilt after the 1953 earthquake around its Venetian squares.
