Zakynthos (Zante) is the southernmost among the Ionian Islands and also the third biggest. It is a charming island with long, sandy beaches and crystal blue waters. Aside from the magnificent view, thousands of tourists come to Zakynthos every year to get the chance to see endangered wildlife up close, when the Caretta Caretta turtles swim up to Zante’s soft sands to lay their eggs.
