Mikro Nisi - all beaches

This beach is an excellent spot to unwind and take a dip in the water. It has all the basic amenities you need, so you can enjoy your time without any fuss.

We decided to take the Voutirakos Cruises boat trip from the Port of Zakynthos to reach the well-known Navagio beach. However, the distance was quite long, and we would suggest taking the boat from Porto Vromi instead. The boat trip lasted four hours and cost 30 euros. During the trip, we stopped at Navagio beach for an hour and at Blue Caves for 40 minutes, where the boat anchored offshore and allowed people to dive. Although Navagio beach was breathtakingly beautiful, it was overcrowded with boats arriving every five minutes, bringing hundreds of tourists. The place was packed with people, making it difficult to move around. Due to the overcrowding, the boat staff was constantly yelling at people and being rude to them, especially the staff of Seven Island Cruises, to make room for the next wave of tourists. It was a terrible experience.

This stunning beach boasts crystal-clear blue waters, a common feature among many beaches in the Navagio area. The towering white cliffs add to the breathtaking scenery, and the only way to access this hidden gem is by boat. My companions and I rented a boat in Porto Vromi and spent an entire day exploring the area. For those seeking a peaceful escape from the crowds at Navagio, I highly recommend checking out any of the serene, remote beaches on the northwest coast of Zakynthos.

The beach was serene and breathtaking, with water so clear you could see straight to the bottom. We spent some time snorkeling after anchoring our boat until noon when the sun finally appeared.

This petite and intimate beach exudes a lively atmosphere, with plenty of activity buzzing around it. However, the constant presence of numerous ships, ferries and boats in the water can be somewhat unsettling. Nonetheless, it's an ideal location to snap some picturesque shots and leisurely stroll around. As for swimming, it's not the most conducive spot for aquatic activities.

Upon initial arrival at Alykanas, the beach may not strike one as particularly impressive due to its proximity to the road. However, upon further exploration, one will quickly come to appreciate the stunning quality of the water, which is particularly well-suited for children. Additionally, there are numerous opportunities for water sports, and visitors can easily rent sunbeds and enjoy a meal directly on the beach.
