Ionio Beach (20 Comments) A huge expanse of sandy beach which is great for those who would don't need a sunbed, or a crowd. |
Kaminia Beach (6 Comments) 4.1 A beautiful location and not over commercialised. It's a perfect stop-off place and within walking distance of Argassi if you're feeling fit! |
Mavratzi Beach (16 Comments) For a while in 2008 this was a deserted naturist beach, but not now the Zante Royal Palace Hotel has reopened. |
Plaka Beach (11 Comments) A tidy and well run beach resort. You pay for sunbeds on the beach, but sunbeds on the grassy area behind are free. |
Porto Roma Beach (7 Comments) Not as sandy as some other beaches in Vassilikos, but still a beautiful setting with greenery surrounding the beach. |

St Nicholas Beach (113 Comments) Offering a wide variety of watersports. There is a free bus from the main resorts but you have to pay for one of the many facilities in order to get the bus back! |
