Hotels near Porto Limnionas
Zakynthos, Greece
Porto Limnionas is a narrow rocky inlet on the wild western coast - the closest thing Zakynthos has to a Norwegian fjord. Sheer limestone walls drop straight into clear, deep, turquoise water, with no sand and no shallows; you swim by jumping or descending one of the cut-stone ladders along the cliffs. A small family-run taverna at the head of the cove serves traditional Zakynthian dishes and rents sun loungers on the rock terrace.
Access is by car only via a narrow winding road from Agios Leon - allow 35 minutes from Zakynthos Town. The cliffs offer some shade in the morning but bake in the afternoon. The water depth and the absence of a beach mean Porto Limnionas suits confident swimmers; this is not the easiest spot for very small children, though older kids who can jump from rocks love it.
Pro Tip: Arrive before 10:30 to find parking on the cliff above the cove - the narrow approach road backs up by midday in summer and there is no overflow lot. Snorkelling from the rock platforms is excellent: the water visibility regularly hits 20 metres on calm days.
