Zakynthos, or Zante as it is often called, is a sensational Ionian island blessed with breathtaking landscapes, exotic, sandy beaches and turquoise bays. It offers a very vibrant nightlife. Many of the beaches, including Tsilivi where the villa is located, Laganas and Kalamaki enjoy an excellent range of watersports. For those that love hiking and cycling, there are many old footpaths leading to mountainous villages, monasteries and medieval towers. A visit by boat to the Keri Caves and Marathonisi, located at the bay of Lachana, is very popular. You will have the chance to swim or snorkel, meeting the famous Caretta turtles that swim in this wonderful natural environment. The island’s famous Blue Caves are one of its most fascinating, natural attractions. They are of great geological interest and are located along the northwestern side of the island, beginning after Agios Nikolaos and ending near Cape Schinari.
Zakynthos’ beaches are renowned for their beauty. Tsilivi Beach is wonderful, offering a good range of watersports and organised sun loungers, parasols and beach bars. Another of the most popular beaches is the sandy beach of Kalamaki. With fine, golden sand and shallow water, it is the ideal spot for families with young children. You can even horse ride on some beaches. Keri Lighthouse is a magical spot to enjoy colourful sunsets and magnificent views of the tall rocks.
One of the most famous sights and a must-visit is ‘The Shipwreck’, a magnificent real shipwreck on the secluded coast of St George. The wreck was discovered on 5 October 1980 and has become a major tourist attraction in its wild, beautiful landscape. There are frequent boat trips to the wreck.
In Zakynthos Town, Solomos Square is a focal spot with many restaurants and bars and the interesting Byzantine Museum and Cultural Center. Bochali is a 2km stroll from the centre of Zakynthos Town. Its panoramic views of the pretty harbour are stunning as are those towards Argassi and the Bay of Laganas. You will discover charming, narrow alleys lined with traditional cafes and old houses. The castle at the top of the hill is well-maintained and a popular attraction. Delicious wines can be tasted and bought at Solomos Wines distillery. The cellars are very attractive and worth a visit.
Laganas is one of the two main tourist hotspots in Zakynthos along with Zakynthos Town. Kalamaki is not far behind, though it is a little more laid-back. There is a good choice of restaurants at all of these resorts. The main street of Laganas runs along the lovely beachfront to Kalamaki. The 5km beach is wonderful with fine, silvery sand lined with sun loungers and parasols. Pedalos and boat trips are available to catch a glimpse of the protected Caretta turtles swimming around the bay. The beaches are part of the National Marine Park. The rare Caretta turtles lay their eggs in the sands of Gerakas, Dafni, Kalamaki, Marathonisi and Sakania, east of Laganas.
Agios Sostis is a charming, quaint coastal Greek village close to Laganas. It is surrounded by beautiful countryside and was named after a 16th-century church dedicated to Saint Sostis. The village has a stunning backdrop of the mountains and a delightful beach. There are some waterfront charismatic bars and restaurants where you will receive a very warm welcome. You can also hire a boat from Agios Sostis over to Marathonisi Island.
