Argassi
is the closest resort to the Zante island's
capital, just 4km away, and a constantly
developing tourist centre built along
a wonderful coast. Argassi is a very
popular holiday resort and offers all
the facilities you'd expect of a bustling
holiday town - including some lively
nightlife. There are many bars, restaurants,
shops, etc that line the main road,
and also set off in the back streets.
Argassi is a good base for exploring
the mountain area of Skopos if you take
a stroll up 758m, where you'll be rewarded
with some amazing views of the island,
the mountainous landscape and the sharp
cliffs. The wild orchids and rare butterflies
create an astonishing feeling to the
visitor.
