After returning to the port, we will head to the Shipwreck viewpoint at midday, the right time, sun, and sea will sparkle in many shades of turquoise. After a short guided walk, reach a high promontory offering breathtaking views. Capture iconic photos where boats appear to float above the crystal-clear sea.

10

Enjoy free time for lunch at a family-run Zakynthian taverna (own expense), offering authentic home-cooked dishes from Yiayia Dimitra, meaning grandmother in Greek! She is the boss of the kitchen, with her very tasty home-cooked dishes with fresh homegrown vegetables and homemade wine and desserts, while the rest of the family would treat you like a family member or a friend. Simply an authentic experience, very nice atmosphere, sensible prices, and very generous dishes.

11

Visit one of the oldest olive trees in the Mediterranean, believed to be over 2,000 years old and still producing olives today. It is one of the seven oldest olive trees in the Mediterranean, and probably one of the oldest olive trees in the world. Treat yourself to some local products, and if you wish, you can support the local producers.

Swim in the unique milky-blue waters of Xigia Beach, known for its natural sulfur and collagen properties. This small, secluded paradise offers a memorable natural spa experience and fantastic photo opportunities.
And if you need any refreshments on the beach, look out for the most ingenious and funny way they get drinks down to the beach…brilliant!
