Zakynthos Shipwreck Bay aka The Beach of Navagio aka Smugglers Cove, is the most famous of Zakynthos beaches and one of the most famous in all of Greece. This superb beach is located in the eastern part of the island, close to the Anafotiria village. It was initially called Agios Georgios but owes its new name to the shipwreck of a boat that transported illegal cigarettes, in 1983. The deep sea left the remains of the ship on this beach. Huge vertical cliffs of white rocks are surrounding the sand creating a unique and enchanting image. To reach this paradise, one has to take a little boat from the small port of Porto Vromi.
