As the green island of poetry, song and love, Zante is indeed a poetically romantic experience. This Ionian island is overseen by a Venetian Fortress that is sure to impress.
The St. Dennis Cathedral will also greet you as you arrive on this enchanting island. Museums abound and the Solomos mausoleum is a definite must on the list of sights to see by any history buff.
You'll also want to include a visit to the Byzantine Museum. Frescoes from many medieval churches which were brought to the ground by an earthquake in 1953 found their way to this museum and are a beautiful look into the past
With all this rich history, the main attraction remains the splendor of the miles and miles of silky beaches. Lie in the sun, wade through the water or take a sunset stroll over the warm, pale sand.
Find your way to Geraka and immerse yourself in an argyle bath. Early risers may also come upon the Caretta-Caretta sea turtles that nest here.
Travel inland to taste great wines, eat delectable food and be treated to the local hospitality. Monasteries are open to the public and are a tranquil alternative to the busy beaches. Though touched by a great amount of development, the poetic charm of Zante can still be felt and seen throughout the island.
