Zakynthos is a southern Ionian hub: a city marina/harbour at Zante Town, easy day hops to Agios Nikolaos (NE) and Keri (SW), micro-tidal waters, and strict rules inside the National Marine Park in Laganas Bay (speed limits and no-anchoring zones).
The island lends itself to short day sails: the main landfall is Zante Town, with further sheltered stops at Agios Nikolaos (NE) and Keri (SW).
The west coast is high and exposed—with scenic but weather-dependent anchorages including access to Navagio Bay—while the east and northeast coasts suit relaxed short hops.
Laganas Bay and the islets around it form the National Marine Park: some areas are closed to vessels; others allow 6-kt navigation with no anchoring; anchoring is permitted only in designated sectors, all to protect Posidonia and loggerhead turtles.
Conditions are micro-tidal; sea level and chop are wind/pressure-driven, with a reliable summer afternoon breeze (maistral). Ferry and tour-boat traffic is frequent at Zante Town—plan channel crossings early and keep a listening watch.
