Restrictions Enforced: No Swimming or Access Permitted at Zakynthos' Navagio Beach

Navagio Beach Access Officially Prohibited by Government Decision

In a significant government ruling, access to Navagio Beach, one of Greece's renowned coastal destinations situated on Zakynthos island, has been officially banned.

This popular beach will remain closed throughout the summer season, with limited boat access strictly regulated to a designated sea area for a maximum duration of 20 minutes.

This decision, published in the Government Gazette (FEK) by the port master, aims to prioritize the protection of human life and uphold order and safety during the peak tourist period.

According to the decree, access within a specified area connecting the northern and southern ends of Navagio bay is strictly prohibited. This includes a ban on anchoring any type of floating vessel, whether motorized or non-motorized, as well as swimming within these defined limits.

Boats will be permitted to enter the secure sea zone from the northern end of Navagio bay, sailing towards the southern end, exclusively between 8 am and 3:30 pm daily. Tourist boats will be allowed to remain within the designated safe sea area for a maximum duration of 20 minutes.

The decision to impose restrictions on accessing Shipwreck Beach comes in response to repeated recommendations by the President of the National Earthquake Planning and Protection Organization (EPPO). The EPPO president has consistently emphasized concerns about the site's safety, leading to this decision being implemented.

After ongoing wrangling between island officials, local government and tourism stakeholders, Zakynthos’ most famous beach, Navagio will remain closed for the summer season.

The decision comes after repeated recommendations by the President of the National Earthquake Planning and Protection Organization (EPPO), Efthymios Lekkas, who reiterated his arguments concerning the safety of the site, adding that “it would be disastrous if an accident happened”.

The joint decision announced this week by the Citizen Protection, Shipping, Tourism and Climate Crisis ministries, was published in the Government Gazette and bans access to the bay of Navagio Beach by sea and land until October 31. Additionally, sailing or anchoring in the cited area by all floating motorized or non-motorized means as well as swimming is prohibited. Violators will be fined, the decision reads.

Το μνημείο της Ζαγορίσιας Γυναίκας της Πίνδο.

Στην είσοδο του κάμπου των Ασπραγγέλων βρίσκεται το μνημείο της Ζαγορίσιας Γυναίκας της Πίνδου που είναι αφιερωμένο στη μνήμη των γυναικών του Ζαγορίου που με αυταπάρνηση συνέβαλαν τα μέγιστα για να αποκρουστεί η εισβολή των Ιταλικών δυνάμεων το φθινόπωρο του 1940.
Το άγαλμα στήθηκε στη περιοχή τον Οκτώβριο του 1993. Είναι έργο του Θεσσαλού γλύπτη Γιώργου Καλακαλλά και το ύψος του φτάνει τα 6 μέτρα, ενώ το βάρος του είναι 1,7 τόνους.
