Xigia Beach, located on the northeastern coast of Zakynthos, is renowned for its unique milky-colored waters due to the presence of sulphurous springs. This complex consists of three beaches, each offering a distinct experience. The beach is nestled between dramatic cliffs, providing a serene and secluded atmosphere. It is accessible by car or scooter, with a scenic drive offering breathtaking views of the coastline. The therapeutic properties of the sulfur-rich waters make it a popular spot for those seeking relaxation and health benefits.

The beach is small and can become crowded during peak season, so arriving early is recommended. The sulfur smell can be quite strong, so visitors should come prepared. The nearby taverns offer a convenient dining experience with a pulley system for delivering drinks and snacks directly to the beach.

Xigia Beach is a must-visit for its natural beauty and healing properties, making it an ideal retreat from the more bustling tourist areas on the island.
