The most beautiful beaches: Zante

If the most important place on your holiday is the beach, your Greek island is Zante, it has some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe. For example, Fior di Levante has soft white sand beaches and crystal clear sea, an ideal place to relax all day long. Zante is also home to the most photographed beach in the Mediterranean, Navagio Beach or Shipwreck Beach is only accessible by sea but features an abandoned shipwreck on the beach, which is situated between high cliffs. The shipwreck drifted there because of sea currents and has been left there as a feature ever since.

Netferry recommends a holiday to Crete for all travellers in search of appetizing Greek dishes. Cretian food is a riot of colours, scents and flavours and we think you’ll be spoiled for choice: there’s moussaka, Greek salad, souvlaki, grilled fish, clay bread, mizithra and much more to choose from. There are plenty of typical taverns to choose from, just imagine yourself enjoying these traditional dishes by the sea, at sunset, while listening to traditional music and sipping good Raki - perfect! 

Tranquillity and peace: Koufonissi
