Thrill seekers will find the adventure of their life on Zakynthos Island or Zante as it is also known. It’s the largest of the Ionian islands and famed for the shipwreck resting off postcard-perfect Navagio beach. It’s one of the most photographed spots in Greece, framed by spectacular limestone cliffs and only accessible by boat.

It’s a magnet for base jumpers who come from all over the world to plunge into the crystal clear water below. But if that is too adventurous for you, Agios Nikolaos, Alykanas and Tsilivi offer swimming and water sports while the waterfront around Solomos Square in the harbour city of Zakynthos provides lots to do.

Cancun, Mexico
