Gerakas: This resort is without a doubt one of the most unspoilt on the island, offering one of the most beautiful beaches in Zakynthos. Gerakas Beach is part of the National Marine Park which protects the endangered Caretta-Caretta turtle and therefore has quite strict regulations. The beach is manned by environmental groups who advise tourists of any nesting areas they should avoid. The bay is protected from the wind by its rocky cape so is a perfect sunbathing spot even on a windy day. To ensure the well-being of the nesting sites, there are no watersports on the beach or any facilities other than a couple of portable toilets. However above the beach there is a snack bar and taverna. There is also an excellent information centre on the turtles run by a local eco-tourism initiative. The accommodation in this area tends to be small cottages thus maintaining the areas distinctive unspoilt feel. Even if you don't choose Gerakas as your holiday destination, a day in this fascinating and picturesque area is a must. Transfer Time from airport is approximately 45 minutes.
