Things To Do in Zante

Holidays to Laganas offer a sharp contrast between the high-energy nightlife of the Laganas Strip and the protected nature of Laganas Bay. The beach is part of the National Marine Park of Zakynthos, and it serves as a critical nesting site for loggerhead turtles.

Holidays to Alykes take you to the coast of Zante – one of the Ionian Islands. A highlight is Alykes Bay, a long stretch of golden sand separated from Alikanas Beach by the Skourtis River. There’s plenty to see – think protected wildlife, salt flats and the nearby capital's Saint Dionysios Church.

Holidays to Tsilivi offer a first-class beach, a portfolio of watersports, and plenty for children. No wonder this place is Zante's most up-and-coming spot.

Holidays to Vassilikos come with traditional Greek get-away-from-it-all character. You've got some of Zante's best beaches on the doorstep, plus shy and retiring tavernas dozing in the sun.

Alykon Bay, on Zante’s north coast, is where you’ll be based on Alykanas holidays. Things here centre around Alykanas Beach, a 1,200-metre stretch of sand with views across to another of the Ionian Island’s gems, Kefalonia. The historic quarter, Old Alykanas, is surrounded by olive groves and sits near the famous limestone cliffs of Smugglers Cove.

Holidays to Tragaki let you turn the ante up and down as you please. The sleepy village is slightly off-trail, but sandy beaches and livelier towns are easy to get to.

With a pretty beach and traditional cooking, holidays to Aghios Sostis offer up a taste of the real Greece. Plus there's lively nightlife within walking distance – and the capital Zante Town just down the road.
