6Zakynthos – The Island of Dreamlike Blue

If any island has a color Americans are obsessed with, it’s Zakynthos. The electric-blue waters of Navagio Beach and the Blue Caves are almost unbelievable in person.

But beyond the famous boat tours, U.S. visitors are discovering luxury stays on the quieter north side, sea-turtle spotting, and sunsets that glow against the Ionian Sea. It’s dramatic, romantic, and easily accessible—an irresistible combination.
