In July and August, peak temperatures can reach the mid 30s. Either side of these hottest months in June and September, highs can still hit the late twenties. In May and October, temperatures are more likely to peak in the early twenties, with rain likely in October. The weather in Zante in the winter months tends to be mild and wet, but the island is very much a summer destination.
Things to see & do
Holidays to Zante often revolve around the beaches, where you can find a wealth of watersports. These are non-motorised in Laganas, to protect the endangered loggerhead turtles. Excursions from Zante include Olympia on the Greek mainland, neighbouring Kefalonia and even overnight trips to Athens. For thrills and spills, Zante has two popular water parks to choose from. Plenty of shopping can be done in the resorts and in the pretty island capital, Zante Town. Don’t miss a boat trip around the island with a stop off at Navajio.
The nightlife in Zante depends very much on where you stay. The liveliest resort on the island also happens to be one of the most popular party places in Europe: Laganas is packed with a pulsing mix of cocktail bars, retro discos and big dance clubs. Elsewhere on the island, Argassi’s centre is also loud and lively after dark. In Tsilivi, there are plenty of bars and clubs to choose from, but things are more geared towards families and couples. The quieter resorts of Alykes and Alykanas have a smattering of bars, but nightlife is more about the restaurants and slow, seafront strolls.
Food & drink
Many hotels in Zante have their own restaurants, but there are many eateries to be enjoyed in the resorts themselves. Tsilivi, Laganas, Argassi, Alykes and Alykanas all have a good mixture of international establishments, serving up everything from fast food to Chinese and Italian. In Zante town, enjoy freshly-caught seafood from a waterfront restaurant. No holiday to Greece would be complete without dinner in a local taverna: pull up an alfresco chair and enjoy specialities like stifado, moussaka and hummus.
