A beautiful cove on the coast of Zakynthos in Greece. Taken from a look out point which is made of stairs that over hang the cliff face, an amazing view but also terrifying. The strip of beach is accessed only by boat.

Navagio Beach (Greek: Ναυάγιο), or Shipwreck Beach, is an exposed cove, sometimes referred to as 'Smugglers Cove', on the coast of Zakynthos, in the Ionian Islands of Greece.


Navagio Beach was originally known as Agios Georgios. Then sometime in 1981, the Greek authorities were tipped that a freightliner in the waters around Zakynthos Island is smuggling contraband which included cigarettes, wine and women, and a chase began. Stormy weather and bad visibility resulted in the ship running aground right on Navagio Beach. The ship was abandoned and still rests buried in white sandy dunes of the beach that now bears the nickname Shipwreck.
