Laganas Beach is a massive beach that is also the most popular one on the whole island of Zakynthos. It is a sandy beach that spans 9 km in length. The waters of the beach are known for being clear and beautiful. The beach is excellent for swimming and sunbathing, and it also offers a large array of taverns and snack bars. It is a great place to spot the endangered species of loggerhead sea turtles (Carretta carretta) and is protected by the Greek government for that reason. There are gift shops, lounges, bars and restaurants scattered around the beach as well. This vibrant and pleasant beach is the biggest tourist draw in Laganas.
