At the southernmost tip of the island, at Gerakas cape, you will find this cosy pink cottage in the shade of an virgin oak grove with a private garden with sea view and a path leading down to a small secluded beach. On the other side of the cape, only a five-minute walk from Gerakas cottage, there is the famous Gerakas turtle beach, which belongs to the Zakynthos National Marine Park. Gerakas beac
h is a 500 meters long sandy shallow beach with no buildings on or around it. As it is one of the most important nesting beaches for the giant Loggerhead Sea Turtle (Caretta caretta) there are certain restrictions but Gerakas beach is open for visitors from sunrise to sunset every day. Within 5 minute walk you reach taverns, minimarket and beachbar and the sea!
