The Shipwreck Cove on Zakynthos Island, Greece, is undeniably among the most beautiful places on Earth. It got its name in 1983, after a smuggler ship called Panagiotis, was destroyed on the beach while transporting cigarettes.

Located in the Municipality of Elation, the area boasts sheer limestone cliffs, clear blue waters, and white sand beaches that attract thousands of tourists every year, probably the reason it is hailed as among the most beautiful places on the planet.
