Zante holidays - travel guide


introduction to Zante

Sunshine and a friendly welcome are a hallmark of this island. Called the "Flower of the East" centuries ago, Zante offers an island of contrasts; stunning scenery, white cliffs, sleepy olive groves and dusky mountains. Tsilivi is situated just up the coast from Zante Town and has a mile-long crescent of golden sand. This picturesque, charming island has a distinctly village atmosphere with friendly tavernas, shops and bars. Laganas has possibly the best beach on the island, where the endangered loggerhead turtles nest, and you've the chance to venture to famous Smugler's Cove.

Off the coast of the Peloponnese, where the Ionian Sea meets the Med, lies Zante, yet another Greek island paradise.
