The
original village of Keri, located up the hills, remains
really traditional, allowing a real insight into the
traditional Greek way of life with its rich cultural
values and traditional folk singing, as well as being
one of the prettiest places on the island. Keri Beach
is part of the National Sea Park conservation area which
protects the endangered species of the loggerhead turtles
"caretta-caretta", which nest in the area.

The
waterfront of Keri Beach is dotted with tavernas, shops,
cafes and bars. The small harbour shelters local fishing
boats and day trip boats that offer trips to the stunning
Keri Caves and the little island of Marathonissi (Turtle
Island). |

The
perfect blend of tradition and culture alongside the natural
beauty of the countryside makes Keri one of the highest
quality tourist destinations on the island. |

Zakynthos!
Zante, "Fioro di Levante" (Flower of the East),
according to the Italians. Zakynthos is a small, extremely
beautiful island, at the south-western part of Greece,
in the Ionian Sea. It is part of the complex "Eptanissa"
(Seven Islands) which comprises of Zakynthos, Kerkyra
(Corfu), Cephalonia, Paxi, Ithaki and Kythira... The uniquely
beautiful natural environment of the island, its mild
and sweet climate all the year-round, and the serene way
of life of its inhabitants have made Zakynthos the cradle
of some of the most famous artists and literary personalities
of Greece, including the National poet Dionyssios Solomos.
Hugo Foskolo, the Greek-Italian poet, was also born in
Zakynthos. Andreas Kalvos, the famous Zakynthian poet,
who lived and taught most of his life in England, full
of nostalgia for his beloved island, writes in one of
his poems:
Long-live
Ausonia,
long-live old Albion (London),
long-live the victorious Paris,
Beautiful and unique Zakynthos
has conquered me over...

Moreover,
many writers, painters, sculptors, composers, etc. were
born, lived, and flourished in Zakynthos; some of their
creations can be seen and admired at the Museum in the
town of Zakynthos. Zakynthos, moreover, is "home"
of some rare species of sea animals, mammals, and birds.
In this regard, the famous sea-turtle "caretta-caretta"
is visiting the island every year to lay its eggs into
the clean, sandy, hot beaches of Zakynthos. Also, the
rare species of the sea-seal "monachus-monachus"
lives on the sea-rocks and crystal-clear waters of western
Zakynthos. It is for the protection of these rare species
and other fish and sea animals that the southern part
of Zakynthos (the Gulf of Laganas) has been declared as
the National Sea Park of Zakynthos. |

One
of the most beautiful places in Zakynthos is the village
of Keri and its surrounding environment, which is part
of the National Sea Park. A wonderful combination of beaches,
high sea-cliffs with "private" small and clean
beaches, pine-forests, wonderful landscapes, velvet sunsets
-The second most beautiful sunset in Greece- friendly,
serene, and hospitable inhabitants, with strong local
traditions, romantic music-lovers ("kantades")
and tasty local cuisine, with envi-ronmentally friendly
small-scale agriculture, olive-groves, vineyards and fruit-orchards. |
