Blue Caves Cruise
Natural geological formations have led to the creation of many caves along the coast of Zante. Some can be explored by boat and others by swimming. The reflection of the sun on the turquoise waters within these magical caverns, gives the caves their name. A wonderful experience not to be missed!
Marathonisi Island
Many of the boat excursions include a stop-off at Marathonisi Island, which is not only a popular nesting spot for the Loggerhead turtles but it’s also shaped like one too! For that reason, it’s more commonly known as Turtle Island. Facilities wise, there’s little more than floating tuck shops serving drinks, ice creams and snacks. That’s the beauty of it - you can just sit back, relax and take in that fresh sea air.
Shipwreck Beach
The stunning Navagio Beach and shipwreck is undoubtedly the icon of Zante. The only way of setting foot on its shores is by boat. Alternatively, you can capture the picture perfect shot from a viewpoint in the north of the island.
Water Village
Water Village is located in the village of Sarakinado, 4 miles from Zante Town. You can expect a thrill a minute with plenty to do for all the family. Make a splash in the pools, get lost down the black hole and try the Free Fall if you dare! Younger children are catered for too with a dedicated splash zone and there's a lazy river for a gentler ride.
Turtle Spotting Cruise
Zante is home to the Loggerhead turtle, an endangered species who nest on the beaches here. There are many boat excursions on offer to catch a glimpse of these beautiful sea creatures in their natural environment. Your best chance to see them is from June through to August.
Fantasy Mini Golf
Think waterfalls, dinosaurs and erupting volcanoes! Located along the main street in Tsilivi, this fantasy-themed mini golf centre makes a fantastic trip out for families and couples alike. It’s open by day and night, with 4 different courses to choose from - not to be missed!
Luna Fun Park
Located along the main street of Tsilivi, this is a great little spot for keeping younger people entertained. Activities include trampolining and inflatables as well as a games arcade. Drinks are served in the garden area so you can relax while keeping an eye on the fun. Most of the activities are outdoors, so it’s a great place to visit early evening.
Tsilivi Waterpark
For a splashing day out, why not try the Tsilivi Waterpark? There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained, with a variety of slides including a space bowl, the boomerang and racer slides. For anyone looking for more relaxation, there’s also a wave pool and lazy river as well as a splash pool for younger children.
Agios Sostis Beach
This small, picturesque beach sits within the beautiful resort of Agios Sostis (Aghios Sostis), on the South West coast and is perfect for anyone wanting a relaxing day out. The resort itself offers a bucketful of charm plus there’s a small port offering many water-based excursions. And when you’re ready for a bite to eat, there’s a handful of tavernas to choose from, each with the same wonderful view across to Marathonisi (Turtle) Island.
Alykanas Beach
Located on the North East Coast, this long stretch of beach serves up golden sands, crystal clear waters and views across to the neighbouring island of Kefalonia. There’s a host of hotels, bars and restaurants dotted along the seafront with a wider choice on the parallel road. Many of the bars offer swimming pools, free to use. Plus, there’s a great selection of water sports here including pedaloes, windsurfing and banana boats. It’s a great place to soak up the sun by day, and watch the sun set by night.
Amoudi Beach
Amoudi Beach sits within a small laid back resort, north of Tsilivi on the East Coast. There’s a handful of small hotels, a few tavernas, a couple of mini markets and a bakery lining the seafront. The beach here is absolutely stunning – beautiful turquoise waters meet the soft golden sand. There are sunbeds belonging to the hotels and tavernas but none on the beach itself.
Bouka Beach
Just north of Tsilivi, this small, sandy beach has sunbeds available for hire. There’s a handful of shops and restaurants on the road leading down to the beach as well as well as a couple of tavernas on the beach itself.
Gaidaros Beach
Located in Tragaki, just north of Tsilivi, this sandy bay has an abundance of trees that provide a wonderful green backdrop. Small boats moor up close to the shore plus there’s a taverna and sunbeds available for hire. You have views towards both Bouka and Tsilivi Beaches from there.
Kalamaki Beach
This golden beach stretches for almost 2 miles before merging into the bays of Laganas and Agios Sostis on the South East coast. As the famous loggerhead turtles lay their eggs here through the summer months, watersports are unavailable, with the exception of pedaloes.
Laganas Beach
Located on the South East coast, the Bay of Laganas offers one of the best stretches of sand on the island, spanning from the resort of Agios Sostis all the way to Kalamaki. With the exception of pedaloes, you won't find any watersports in this area, to ensure the famous nesting turtles aren't disturbed. Your best chance of seeing them is between June and August.
Tsilivi Beach
This golden sand beach stretches for over 1 mile and is perfect for families due to its shallow waters. Sunbeds are restricted to certain sections of the beach, leaving others to just relax on with nothing more than a towel and a good book. There’s a water sports centre for those feeling more active as well as a good choice of beachside tavernas to keep any tummy grumbles at bay!

Boat tours to the shipwreck
When you're on a Zante villa holiday, you'll be exploring an Ionian paradise. On this beautiful island you'll find breathtaking, unspoiled scenery, quiet and peaceful resorts, and some of Greece’s finest sandy beaches. Zante villa holidays are all about relaxing and getting back to nature, from exploring hilly and mountain landscapes, to wandering around charming whitewashed villages and seeing an incredible array of wildlife. Whether you crave a laid-back getaway in the countryside or a more central location with secluded coves, local tavernas and bustling bars, Zante villas cater to all. From traditional and charming settings like Agios Sostis, to towns like Laganas that come alive at night, the resorts here provide a truly memorable break.
Family Friendly
With a sandy coastline stretching for miles and shallow crystal-clear waters, renting a Zante villa makes for the perfect beach getaway for families. Tsilivi is particularly geared towards kids and has a variety of things to do. Make a splash at the resort’s very own water park, tee up at the fantasy mini golf or race a mini go-kart of the Luna fun park – the choice is yours. Children will love taking a boat in search of the beautiful loggerhead turtles or sailing to the famous shipwreck at Navagio Beach. There’ll be plenty of free time to jump of the back of the boat for a swim too!
Weather
Enjoy a Zante villa holiday between May and October, and expect a warm climate throughout. Long sunny days in July and August often see temperatures reaching above 30°C. Or, if you’d prefer something a little more on the mild side, visit the island in the balmy shoulder months and still see temperatures in the mid-20s.
