What to do and see in Zakynthos, Ionian Islands: The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day
The Ionian Islands are splendid, cinematic paradise. The waters are bluest blue, the sands are achingly silky and smooth. Everything looks heavily Photoshopped. But that's just Mother Nature, in all her unspoiled glory. Zakynthos is the largest of the Ionian Islands, and it's as fruitful as it is beautiful, boasting a bounty of crops like olives and grapes. Music is a huge part of the local culture—you can catch a concert or festival almost any night of the week, and you'll be captivated by the sights and sounds of Zakynthos performers.

This is the best bar in Alykanas, absolutely amazing since the renovation, so modern and spotless, toilets are immaculate. You are made so welcome night after night with a cuddle from Anna, Ollie the owners and Maria the waitress. They remember your drink you don't need to que at the bar like you do in the UK they bring your drink over. Music is brill, some good sing-alongs there after a couple of drinks???? and they cater for all ages of music, children are welcome. Customers are so friendly too. Great atmosphere and made some great memories to last a lifetime. They put all football matches on and rugby whatever you want to watch, plenty of Tv's to watch a game. The bar is nice and cool aswell on humid nights. The cocktails are amazing.. Alykanas as a whole is my second home now, and Buster's bar are like my second family now.. love all the staff. See you next year Anna and Ollie xx

We stayed at Mojo modern apartments in August 2020. You will not find anywhere better to stay in Alykanas. There are 2 (or 3 in some) large bedrooms and the living area is out of this world. Check it out before you book anywhere else. Mojo Cocktail bar is also a must visit!! Antonis will make you a brilliant cocktail or coffee, or you can chill with a draft mythos. Rosie is amazing and will help you with anything you need. She has the most bubbly personality and will keep you and your children entertained during your visit. You must go to Mojo.... Thank you Antonis and Rosie for being the best possible hosts and for making our holiday perfect.

Claude Lipo & his lovely family have a gem with this bar which is open all year round! Always hands out a warm welcome and you feel at home in his company, fantastic cocktails which he personally creates and takes pride in, also a bbq every 3 days or so where he slowly cooks a whole lamb on the spit for 8/9 hours, beautiful meal with his greek salad and home made wine!! Claude is probably too charitable for his own good and that makes him endearing to everyone that goes there, he's more interested in pleasing his customers than making loads of money, he's a star and will look forward to seeing him again in 2020

10. Goumas Estate - Art & Wine Winery
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 83 reviews
A venue of enhanced creativity, Goumas Estate - Art & Wine is located at Trilagkada, near the mountainous settlement of Maries, northwestern Zakynthos. Two different but connected worlds of creation cohabit its spaces; an icon painting workshop and a boutique winery. Both live on the hard work, passion and life of Giatras-Goumas family, confined in a traditional, refurbished home made of stone.
Reviewed By cleliadthe1 - Greece, null
As soon as you step into the Goumas estate, you are transferred to another dimension. Serenity, taste and good honest work ooze out of every stone. It’s you, the mountains, the vineyard, the stone rooms, and the gods of nature. Giannis is a saint-painter having taken many projects of orthodox church renovation and decoration. He creates his wines like he creates his art: with diligence, honour and sophistication. Despina is also a creature of art, a talented and resourceful multitasker, gliding like a fairy from the vineyard to help with daily chores, to the kitchen to produce unique handmade jams and cookies and caramelised fruit symphonies, to the dance-school to keep following her passion and keeping her body and spirit balanced and tuned. Have a sit with these two very interesting artists. Taste the unique wines - make sure you don’t miss the smoked wine! Sample the homemade delicacies! And indulge into the most Greek experience you can have: great food, great wine, and deep conversation on a little slice of heaven!
