On 2 October 1980, a freightliner, the MV Panagiotis, ran aground in the waters around Zakynthos Island on Navagio Beach during stormy weather and bad visibility.
It has been rumored the ship was smuggling contraband such as cigarettes, wine and women.
The ship was abandoned and still rests buried in the limestone gravel of the beach that now bears the nickname Shipwreck.
