World´s Most Picturesque BASE Jumping Spot - Zakynthos, Greece

Turquoise blue sea contrasting with the white limestone cliffs, ending on a pebble beach with fragments of a wrecked legendary cargo ship. Something like that could be briefly described when speaking about the beautiful Navagio Beach on the Greek island of Zakynthos. In addition to the classic "bathing" here, from time to time you may also come across the fans of a little more active and adventurous vacation :-) Navagio beach is one of the most popular sites for experienced BASE jumpers from all over the world.

Navagio Beach is a hidden cove, often referred to as „Smugglers Cove“, and is the location of the wreck of the alleged smuggler ship Panagiotis.

The reason, why just for the experienced, is obvious. Because of the relatively low altitude of the rocky platform, the parachutes are opening fairly close to the wall and any error could be dearly paid. Even so, the Navagio Beach is still more popular, and after watching the following video you will understand why.
