Laganas - A Tour Guides View.

[Louise]

Laganas - the largest resort on the island of Zante/Zakynthos, Laganas is very popular with visitors from the UK.

It's the only Club 18-30 resort on Zante/Zakynthos. The bright neon lights of Laganas are a magnet to young people, but the resort has a lot to offer everyone, with over 100 bars/clubs and a choice of Italian, Indian and Chinese food.

Make sure you check the location of your accommodation. The resort is very spread out, with some apartments well over a mile from the beach. If you like an early night then make sure you're not above a bar or in one of the hotels on the main street in the centre of town.

The area to the east of the town centre is the best place to stay. It can be almost peaceful, yet close to the beach and the town centre.

The lack of water sports is a problem for some, but there are free buses running down to St Nickolaos beach everyday.

It is definitely not traditionally Greek, but you don't have to travel far to be in traditional greek villages.
