Picture perfect Cameo Island

Some touristy things are touristy/busy for a reason. Cameo Island on Zakynthos is one of them. It's a private island, reachable via a picturesque wooden footbridge. For an entrance fee of €5, you get access to small pebble beach and accompanying beach bar. Beautiful to photograph thanks to the white cloths hanging on top of it. Wouldn't recommend to stay long here though - just come early, go for a swim, get your shot and head towards a more quiet place on the island. - this trip was made in collaboration with Eliza was here.

Crystal-clear Myzithres viewpoint

Zakynthos might have the bluest water I've ever seen. Best spot to take that all in? The Myzithres viewpoint, close to the village of Keri. After a short hike uphill, you'll get an A+ view on limestone cliffs in water as blue as it can get. Go for a take-away coffee at the Keri Lighthouse coffee truck afterwards.

Chill afternoon at Porto Limnionas

This is one for the little bay lovers that don't mind laying down on the ground next to the sea. Go and spend the afternoon at Porto Limnionas. At night, have dinner with a first row view on the sunset in the restaurant next to the parking.
