Hiking
The Skinari Lighthouse (Greek: Φάρος Σκινάρι) is located at the northern tip of Zakynthos.
The lighthouse stands on a cliff at Cape Skinari, approximately 67 meters above sea level.
It is a 9.5-meter-high, circular stone tower, built in 1897. An adjacent keeper's house completes the structure.
It is an active beacon with a focal plane at a height of 39 meters and emits two white flashes every 15 seconds.
