Whether you enjoy being at the centre of it all, visiting a popular beach or whether a peaceful more secluded option is ideal for you, Zante has it all. Start your exploration today.

Tsivili Beach

A few steps minutes from your Lesante room (about 1.200 metres), is Tsivili beach. Awarded with the Blue Flag, the beach encompasses soft gold sand, crystal clear waters and a positive energy among all of its guests.

A popular choice for all Zante explorers, it is guarantees a day under the sun that has it all: relaxation, swimming, socialising. Next to Tsivili beach is Planos beach, known for its picturesque harbour.

Here you can hire a boat to take you to the magical blue caves and the famous Shipwreck beach. Otherwise, you can just chill out and enjoy the beautiful view of the fishing boats coming in at daybreak.

The beach also offers a great variety of activities. Sports lovers will be happy to discover: Jet-ski, pedal boats, banana rides, parasailing, scuba diving, and so much more here.

Makris Gialos

This small beach will become one of your favourites. Beautiful, concealed by cliffs and small caves, all of the natural elements create the perfect scenery for relaxation all day long under Zante’s sun.

Swim to the caves and admire their beauty up-close –a must see for all adventurers. Bigger caves found near the area, can be explored by hiring one of the local boats.

Gerakas and Dafni

The scenery in Zante varies but is always beautiful. The east side of the peninsula of Vassilikos is home to the National Marine Park that protects the Caretta-caretta turtle –absolutely worth a visit. In this area you will find the beaches of Gerakas and Dafni.

Well known by all sports lovers, here you will have the chance to enjoy snorkeling or admire those who do. The beach of Gerakas is located nearby.

Sandy, peaceful and free-spirited –no facilities or beach bars around- the beach will be your tranquility haven. Embrace the perfect setting and enjoy swimming under the sun all day long.

Agios Nikolaos

At the end of the peninsula of Vassilikos, lies Agios Nikolaos beach. It is here that the summer sports ‘community’ gathers since the beach provides a great variety of activities such as scuba diving, jet skiing, wind surfing, parasailing and snorkeling.

Yet, the secret of this beach is a path just behind the chapel of Saint Nicholas. Walk along to reach to reach a long sandy beach called Plaka –also known as Banana beach due to its shape! Admire the Ionian sea and relax until late at night.

Porto Zorro or Azzuro

Port Zorro, located on the north side of the peninsula of Vassilikos, is host to trendy bars that attract lots of party lovers. Music, cocktails and dancing last until late at night or even until sunrise!

If you do not join the beach party, you can simply admire the view to the sea. Porto Zorro offers a unique scenery. Giant rocks emerging from the sea, are the perfect surroundings for authentic Mediterranean holidays.

Kalamaki and Crystal

These two beaches are extremely clean thanks to the volunteers of the Sea Turtle Protection Society, who take good care of it. It is popular mostly due to the fact that the waters remain shallow for a long way out, thus making it a safe swimming place for children of all ages.

Going past the river next to Kalamaki beach you will find the famous Laganas beach. If party-time is on your cards, then Laganas is the spot for you.

Marathia

Here, the crystal blue of the waters meets the vibrant green of the trees. Small, secluded and pebbled, Marathia beach is as an authentic Greek beach as it can get.

Its remoteness pulls only the real explorers, who dare to discover less popular beach choices. Explore the area and let your steps lead you to a near-by, very small beach that offers to you a stunning view over the uninhabited island of Marathonisi.

Xigia

Prepare to be amazed. Xigia is a secluded beach located among big rocks. The turquoise waters –Zante’s most famous asset- also can be enjoyed here. Relax, enjoy the free-spirited essence and embrace the exotic view.

At Xigia beach you can completely rejuvenate yourself thanks to the water’s healing qualities. The natural spring waters that flow into the sea from the beach caves are filled with sulphur, which is a therapeutic spa for your body and mind. Swimming here is a one-of-a-kind experience, body and mind wise.

Koukla and Kamina

Cosmopolitan, gorgeous and well-organised. Both of these two beaches are a must-see during your holidays in Zante. And it could not be otherwise since “Koukla” in Greek means “beautiful”. Turquoise waters, sandy beaches and a spectacular view to the sea, will make your day very rewarding.

Yet the secret of this particular area lies on the shore. Explore the nature that surrounds the beaches to discover the oldest olive trees of Zante. They have stood tall, magnificent and proud for more than a thousand years.

Ambula and Psarou

The Blue Flag has been awarded to both Ambula and Psarou. The first one is a small, picturesque beach, mostly sandy yet with some pebbled spots. Organised facilities and a variety of activities on site, satisfy all types of visitors.

Psarou beach, a few kilometres further on, is a favourite spot among the locals. Sandy, secluded –only accessible by a small road- and with shallow waters, it is the perfect place for a family-oriented day on the beach.

Highlights

Zante is loved by all because it offers everything. It combines spectacular beaches and incredible mountainous views. Here you can find secluded shores to relax, or you can party all day and all night long in cool beach bars.

Zante offers a little bit of everything. Explore everything it has to offer to fully capture the island’s spirit and experience a traditional Greek summer holiday.

Shipwreck Beach

This is the reason you came to Zante. And truly it is a good one. The ‘Shipwreck’ beach, also known as “Navagio”, is one of the most famous Greek beaches in the world. The wreck of an old smugglers’ ship rests amongst the golden sand.

According to the locals, the shipwreck’s story began in 1980 when the ship called ‘Panagiotis’, carrying a freight of contraband cigarettes, while being pursued by the Greek Navy, encountered stormy weather.

The ship ran aground in a shallow cove on the north-west coast of the island, with the crew abandoning ship. The shipwreck lies gracefully on the beach to this day. The turquoise waters that embrace it together with the gold sand create a charming image, one that you will never forget.

Caretta Caretta Turtles

From June till mid September, during the night time, these cute creatures rush to the shore where they lay about 100 eggs each into the sand. The breeding ground is only to be found on the dry part of the sandy beaches around the bay of Lagana.

After two months, the eggs hatch and the tiny hatchlings make their way to the sea. For the protection of this natural process, numerous beaches are closed at night and guarded by volunteers of the Sea Turtle Protection Society.

It is not easy to spot the Caretta-caretta turtles since they are very vulnerable and easily frightened by noise and bright lights. To view them up close, take one of the organised tours starting their voyage to the world of Caretta-caretta, from the port of Agios Sostis or Porto Koukla.

Blue Caves

A journey to Zante is never complete without an exploration of the famous Blue caves. Situated on the northern tip of the island, near the port of Agios Nikolaos, these natural arches and water-caves that have been cut out by tides over thousands of years, form a distinguished image of the kingdom of the sea.

Swim and explore the caves one by one –a one-of-a-kind experience. Snorkeling and diving are also suggested so that you will fully capture the carefree water essence.

Marathonisi Island

It may be uninhabited yet it is precious. Admiring Marathonisi island from afar you are presented with a surprising fact: its shape resembles a turtle! Maybe this is why the Marathonisi beach is also the place where Caretta-caretta turtles choose to breed.

Due to the Caretta-caretta presence, the island is part of the National Marine Park, thus guarded by volunteers that protect the growth of the turtle population.
The other side of the island hosts tiny exotic beaches, ideal places for swimming and total relaxation under the sun.

Hire a small boat and anchor in the caves where from you need to dive and swim in order to reach the hidden beaches. The remoteness of the island offers crystal clear waters and peacefulness like no other.

Zante Town

The island’s capital -called Zakynthos- has 15,000 residents. Vibrant and modern, the city has managed to preserve the traditional spirit of the past, visible in the main squares of Saint Marcus and Solomos.

Exploring the city centre you will find traditional picturesque shops owned by the locals, full of homemade food and handcrafted items. Stroll down the main shopping street of Alexandra Roma and enjoy some much needed shopping therapy.

The ruins of the Venetian fortress lie above town, overlooking Zante’s harbour. The fortress is called Kastro, which means castle in Greek, and adds to the city’s charm with a view of the past.

Walking around the city you will find a mix of modern and traditional buildings. The 1953 earthquake that shook the island was the reason for the reconstruction of lots of areas of the capital.

This is why today, the architecture of Zante’s capital is a unique mix of the traditional and the contemporary, blending both spirits into one –very charming indeed.

Keri Caves

The gorgeous coastline of the Keri peninsula –located on the south west of Zante, will win your heart over at first sight. It will take you more than that though to fully appreciate its beauty. Rent a boat and sail around it to explore the caves, the dark tunnels and the sealife inside.

Reaching the shores, you will be able to find some of the most secluded and quiet beaches of Zante island (ideal for snorkeling and diving). Walk about the beaches and explore nature’s beauty.

While relaxing in the water do not be surprised if you spot a monk seal swimming next to you! Zakynthos is the only place in the Mediterranean region where monk seals are still to be found.

If you visit the beach with your loved one, do not miss out on exploring the two giant rocks called ‘Mitzitres’ up close. According to the local legends, if you go there with your loved one and you look into each other eyes while passing between the rocks, you will stay together forever.

Mountainous Region

The island’s east side offers a gorgeous mountainous experience that can make for an exciting road trip. Picturesque villages such as Loucha, dark green forests full of pine trees, high cliffs offering stunning views of the island and the precious sounds only mountain’s nature can form, create an once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Protected Marine Park

Laganas bay has been a National Marine park since 1999, in order for the endangered Caretta-caretta turtle to be protected. That’s why the bay has been split up into several nautical zones, where fishing is banned and speed limits are extra strict.

On the southeast side even more strict rules apply, with all vessel activities being prohibited. In total, six beaches are completely controlled by the Sea Turtle Protection Society, meaning the visitors should respect certain rules during their stay.
