Stop 5

Porto Limnionas is one of the most hidden places and maybe for this reason more beautiful and wild of the entire island.

Porto Roxa Beach is almost triangular in shape, with two green mountainous promontories extending into the sea to form the huge ba.

Korakonissi is a fiord on the western coast of the island and gives its name to the presence of a small island with long shape.

The area of Keri in Zakynthos perfectly combines the green of the vegetation and the olive trees and the blue of the sea.
