Photographer’s Note

Zakynthos Shipwreck bay: The beach of Navagio or Shipwreck or even Zakynthos smugglers cove is the most famous of Zakynthos beaches and one of the most famous of all Greece. It is the trademark of the island and has been photographed millions of times. This superb beach is located in the eastern part of the island, close to the Anafotiria village.
It was initially called Agios Georgios but owes its new name to the shipwreck of a boat that transported illegal cigarettes, in 1983. The deep sea left the remains of the ship on this beach.

There is no way to go down from the clifs so to enjoy that beach yo need to use a boat or ship(what i did it-water was excellent

Baaardzo piękne morze. Super kolorystyka i świetny POV - łatwo jest tam wejść na te wzgórza? Bardzo ładne zdjęcie - tak trzymaj.

Hello Jakub
This is the most common view of Navagio, but it's always nice to see this beauty :) Very good photo quality but it could be bigger.
Pozdrawiam

It's a lovely beach and interesting angle of capture - can almost feel vertigo!!

Hello Jakub,
What a fantastic view.....water so blue and so clear. You've obviously had to do some major climbing to get up there, but it was definitely worth it. It seems like a place that you have to visit. Nicely done.
Cheers Grant
