Zakynthos (Zante)
"The flower of the East" is a beautiful green island with golden bays and crystal waters, tame mountains ideal for climbing and a very active cultural life. Zakynthos is the home of the Mediterranean sea turtle "carreta-carreta" a protected species. Don't forget to visit the sea caves to the North, (they resemble the famous Blue Grotto of Capri), and a sailing trip to the west side of the island will bring you to an enormous beach with a shipwreck embedded in the sand.
