Leaving Kefalonia's mountains behind, the short crossing to Zante takes you past dramatic cliffs before the famous Shipwreck Beach and the island's turquoise coves come into view. Navagio Bay's rusted shipwreck, accessible only by boat, is the island's signature sight and worth arranging a trip to soon after docking. The Blue Caves near Cape Skinari, where sunlight reflects off the water to create a striking blue glow, make a good companion trip to Navagio on the same boat tour.
