The "Zante Sea Turtle Rescue & Information Center" or simply "Zante Turtle Center" is a non-governmental organization (NGO) on Zakynthos. It is located 100 meters above Gerakas beach.

Gerakas is in the heart of the Caretta Caretta nesting grounds. Therefore, the organization works to preserve this endangered turtle species and wants to show how conservation and sustainable tourism can work together to benefit visitors, locals and wildlife alike.

White Cliffs of Zakynthos

Highlight • Natural Monument

Truly very impressive and therefore completely rightly a highlight. The countless photos speak for themselves. I can only recommend taking the little detour over the beach and looking at the rocks from below.

Eroded cliffs at Zakynthos National Marine Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

Extremely impressive and an absolute highlight are the bizarre-looking rock formations. I'm not a geologist, but the rock is extremely light, porous and strongly reminiscent of limestone/chalk. Nonetheless, a real highlight.
