Argasi was one of the first spots in
Zante to be developed for the tourism market and over the years has become a popular resort for people of all ages. It is close to Zakynthos town, the capital of the island, a distance of around four kilometres. Gift shops, souvenir shops, beachwear, clothes and jewellery make up only a part of what is on offer in
Argasi. There is a large variety of accommodation for you to choose from, with many hotels, studios and apartments.
Argasi resort also has a thriving nightlife, with many bars, clubs and pubs, offering quiz nights and karaoke, to quiet relaxing evenings, to top DJ's and partying until the early hours of the morning. As you wander around Argasi you will find many restaurants, tavernas and fast food outlets offering a choice of traditional Greek cuisine to the good old English fry up. Although quite narrow, the beach is long and watersports are allowed, such as paragliding, jetskiis and ringos. The hills behind the resort offer plenty of pleasant walks through the lush green landscape. The close proximity to
Zante town and the beautiful
Vassilikos peninsula make the resort a favourite for those who like to get out and about during their stay but enjoy the amenities that the tourist resort has to offer. There are bus and taxi services to these areas and plenty of options if you prefer to hire your own vehicle.
