KERI VILLAGE
KERI is a picturesque village in the southwest of Zakynthos..(17 kilometers from Zakynthos town.). A charming traditional place set up on the top of a hill overlooking the Ionian Sea.It perfectly combines the lush green vegetation and the blue of the sea. The area retains a variety of architectural elements of pre-earthquake Zakynthos. So typical stone-built houses and cobbled alleys still exist giving visitors a laid back glimpse of the past.
PLACES OF INTEREST
The square of the village is a popular stop-off. Enjoy your coffee or your meal at the cafes or taverns or stroll around the cobbled paths meeting friendly and hospitable locals.
Keri lighthouse. One of the most photographed landmarks in the area. A worthwhile spot to go for a stroll or just take some photos of the Ionian sea.The rocky landscape and the steep cliffs match perfectly with the most spectacular sunset.
“MIZITHRES” are two very tall conical and white rocks one small and one big in the middle of the sea. They got their name from a local cheese called Mizithra produced in Zakynthos. The rocks are located exactly under the lighthouse in Keri and be seen from the Lighthouse or hiring boat. It takes about 20 minutes from the port of Limni.Since 2018 a beach in “Mizithres” has been formed. It has become more and more famous, ranking among the top three most Instagrammed places in Zakynthos.The scenery is stunning as the white colour of the rocks contrasts the crystal blue waters.
A Greek Flag. Next to the Lighthouse stands a huge Greek flag reported to be the largest Greek flag in the world.
Virgin Keriotissa with the icon of the Virgin Mary and an impressive bell tower. At the church, you will find gold–plated baroque-style temple.
