South, between Argassi and Gerekas

The area between Argassi and Gerekas is considered the southern part of the island. Here the Mediterranean vegetation dominates, while sandy beaches and beautiful natural sceneries will certainly amaze you. Sleeping in the south of Zakynthos usually means choosing studios, apartments or rooms to let, in typical Greek family-run structures.

Accommodations are simple, but authentic, while the only luxury structures are located in Argassi. For nature lovers, don’t miss the beaches of Gerekas, Dafne and Agios Nikolaos.
