When the sun goes down, the island comes alive
Zakynthos is an island that combines natural beauty with culture and entertainment. Known for its turquoise waters, impressive coastline and lush landscapes, it also stands out for its strong cultural identity, musical tradition, gastronomy and nightlife.
When the sun goes down, the southern part of the island turns into an open arena of revelry and lively entertainment, with options for everyone. The heart of the nightlife scene is Laganas. If you are looking for beach bars, large clubs, international DJs and parties that last until dawn, this is the place to be. The main strip, around 3 km long, is lined with dozens of venues that stay open until the early hours, attracting mainly a young crowd.
For a more relaxed evening, visit Kalamaki, where cocktail bars, restaurants and music venues by the sea create the perfect setting for a night out without too much intensity. Argasi combines tavernas, cocktail bars and smaller clubs.
Tsilivi is known for its enchanting sunsets and combines a family-friendly atmosphere with modern bars. Alykes is the right place for quieter evenings overlooking the Ionian. Finally, Agios Sostis offers a more romantic atmosphere, with the bar on the private islet of Cameo - reached via a wooden bridge - as a consistent draw.
On the hill behind the town, Bochali is ideal for more distinctive evenings out, with selected bars and night-time spots that combine laid-back music with panoramic views over the town and the Ionian. A few kilometres further out, Vasilikos is an ideal destination if you are looking for a balance between relaxation and entertainment.
From vibrant clubbing to relaxed gatherings by the sea, Zakynthos nightlife offers options to suit every mood.
