Porto Azzurro Beach

Highlight • Beach

Porto Azzurro Beach (often also called Porto Zorro) is located in the southeast of Zakynthos in the Vassilikos region. It is considered one of the most beautiful and best-organized beaches on the island, known for its crystal-clear water and the distinctive rock formations in the sea.

In a secluded bay, accessible via a footpath, there is an area for natural mud baths, which are known for their rejuvenating effects.

The beach offers a mix of fine sand and some pebbles when entering the water. On the left side, trees provide natural shade.

The rock formations in the water make the beach an excellent spot for snorkeling.

Kalamaki Beach

Highlight • Beach

Kalamaki Beach is a spacious sandy beach belonging to the National Marine Park of Zakynthos. The beach is an important nesting site for the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta). For this reason, there are protected areas closed to the public, and motorized water sports are prohibited.

It is characterized by fine sand and very shallow, warm water, making it particularly family-friendly.

The village of Kalamaki is located about 3 km from the livelier party resort of Laganas and offers a more relaxed atmosphere with cozy bars and restaurants.

As Zakynthos Airport is nearby, you can often watch planes on their final approach during landing from the beach.
