We enjoyed the walk out to the restaurant (also called the Lemon Tree) from Alykanas centre, and were rewarded with a good Greek meal under the lemon trees.

This is the same place as the Psarapoula Fish Taverna - it seems to have two names. We very much enjoyed our visit there.

WE visited this twice in our two week stay. Very friendly staff, allowed you to go at your own pace. Very quiet surroundings, as out of the village centre. The meals were very good, and the house wine cheap but very drinkable. The walnut cake sweet was excellent.

We visited there three times - once for an evening meal, overlooking the small harbour - once for lunch, and once for tea and icecream. All fine apart from the house white wine!

WE visited this resaurant three times in our two weeks - including the last night. It came out top of the seven restaurants we visited for evening meals. Friendly, very good food, and pleasant surroundings. Excellent/

It was all we hoped for on a Greek holiday - this is now the sixth island we have visited. Generaly a quite resort, not too big or brash. But a good variety of restaurants and shops. The beach was very good for swimming - sandy, warm water. We greatly enjoyed our stay there - and wer glad we did not stay in some of the other resorts.

The main beach at Alykanas is a long, sandy curve around part of the bay. Very good, and lots of sunbeds. We also walked along to the old Alykanas Beach (near the Shoestring Restaurant) on two days, which though much smaller, was very pleasant. Lovely to sit in Shoestrings and lookout over the sea eating lunch or having a drink.

We were in Zakynthos (at Alykanas) for two weeks from 27 August. On the whole the weather was very hot and pleasant. In this time we did have two thunderstorms, one at night which started north of us over Kefalonia, and the 'light show' was spectacular!! After a thunder storm the next day started wet or cooler, but it soon improved. The sea at this time is very warm, so September is a good time for swimming in a warm water.
