Full Description
Keri Lake and the fishing village of Keri
Keri is a small village on the far south-west of Zakynthos, and Keri Lake, known locally as Limni Keriou, is its quiet waterfront with a small beach, boats and a few tavernas. It is a peaceful place to walk, take photos and have a swim before the light changes in the late afternoon.
The area is also known for natural pitch springs that the Greek historian Herodotus mentioned more than two thousand years ago. Your guide explains the history, the local farming and fishing and the way of life in the village. If you are searching for a Keri Lake tour or the best things to do in Keri, this stop shows the calm side of the island.
The Myzithres viewpoint
The Myzithres viewpoint sits on the cliffs above the south-west coast and looks over two white limestone rocks rising from the sea. The rocks are called Myzithres after mizithra, a soft white cheese they resemble, and below them the water is deep blue and often calm in the evening.
From the viewpoint you can see far out over the Ionian Sea, and it is one of the most photographed places on the island. Wear a jacket, as the wind can be cool after the sun goes down. The Myzithres viewpoint is popular for photos and for watching the sky change colour, and your guide will suggest the best spots.
Sunset on the west and south-west coast of Zakynthos
The tour is timed around the sunset, and the exact pickup time depends on the season, because the sun sets at different hours through the year. You receive an email with the pickup time on the day before or on the day of the tour. The start time listed is around 17:30, but check your confirmation.
Zakynthos is known for its evening light, and watching the sun sink into the sea from the cliffs is a quieter alternative to a busy beach at midday. If you are asking where to see the sunset in Zakynthos, this tour brings you to a quiet viewpoint on land, away from the boat-trip crowds, and your guide can help you take good photos.
Pickup, timing and practical details
Hotel pickup and drop-off are included inside the pickup area, which covers many resorts and villages of the island. The vehicle is air-conditioned, and bottled water and a personal map are provided. Food and drinks are not included, so you can stop for a meal in Keri if you like.
The tour lasts about four hours. It is suitable for children from two years old and older guests, since there is little walking. Bring comfortable shoes, beachwear if you want to swim at Keri Lake, a towel and a jacket. If the tour is cancelled for bad weather or too few participants, you will be offered another date or tour.
