Fees · Destination Guide
Ionian caves, turtle beaches, and easy day-boat diving
Key fee: Climate Crisis Resilience Fee
Nov-Mar often EUR 0.50 to EUR 4 per room or unit per night; Apr-Oct often EUR 2 to EUR 15 per room or unit per
night depending on accommodation category
Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
Zakynthos does not have a Bonaire-style diver tag. Budget instead for Greece's accommodation-based Climate Crisis Resilience Fee, operator trip fees, and compliance with National Marine Park rules. The marine park restrictions are mandatory even when no separate visitor permit is sold.
