Is Navagio (Shipwreck) Beach Open to Visitors in 2024?

Nestled along the rugged coastline of Zakynthos lies the legendary Navagio Beach, a place of both history and unparalleled natural beauty. Known worldwide for its iconic shipwreck, this secluded cove enchants visitors with its crystal-clear turquoise waters and towering limestone cliffs.

The history of Navagio Beach is as captivating as its scenery, with the wrecked MV Panagiotis resting dramatically on its shores since 1980, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to this stunning location. However, for the 2024 season, visitors are advised of its closure due to ongoing safety concerns.

But fear not! Our boat/bus tours offer an alternative way to experience the breathtaking allure of Navagio, ensuring that you can still behold its splendor from a safe distance while exploring other hidden gems of Zakynthos.

Navagio Beach, also known as Shipwreck Beach, will remain closed this summer due to ongoing safety concerns. Following a rockfall caused by earthquakes in previous years, authorities have decided to prioritize visitor safety by keeping the beach inaccessible for land access.

But don't despair! While Navagio Beach may be closed for foot traffic, you can still marvel at its beauty from the vantage point of a boat or the cliff above it. Our boat tours have been specially designed to offer you a safe and unforgettable experience, allowing you to cruise into the bay at a safe distance. You can always capture that iconic photograph and bask in the splendor of the Shipwreck from above.

For those who have already ticked Navagio Beach off their must-see list, rejoice! Zakynthos boasts a plethora of equally breathtaking locations waiting to be explored. Instead of jostling for space on a crowded beach, why not embark on a private boat tour with us and discover the island's hidden treasures?

From secluded coves with azure waters to majestic coastal cliffs, our boat tours will whisk you away on a journey of discovery through Zakynthos' most enchanting landscapes. Whether you're lounging on pristine beaches or snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, you'll be immersed in the natural beauty and tranquility of this island paradise.

So don't let the closure of Navagio Beach dampen your spirits. Join us for an unforgettable adventure and create memories that will last a lifetime. Contact us today to book your boat tour and experience the magic of Zakynthos in a whole new way!
