===Flora and fauna=== {{See also|Caretta caretta|Zakynthos horse}} The mild [[Mediterranean climate]] and plentiful winter rainfall endow the island with dense vegetation. The principal agricultural products are [[olive oil]], [[Zante currant|currants]], grapes and [[citrus]] fruit. The Zante currant is a small sweet seedless grape that is native to the island.
