Peak season:
Tourists who arrive on cheap flights to Zante (Zakynthos) will enjoy the many natural attractions of this beautiful Greek Island, including unspoiled beaches and warm seas. The third largest Greek island in the Ionian Sea, Zante’s lushly wooded and fertile landscape means it has a history of agriculture, though tourism today is its economic mainstay. In fact, agrotourism is becoming a popular reason to book flights to Zante for a taste of a traditional way of life on farms and vineyards and a chance to get to know the traditional cuisine firsthand. As well as being blessed with a natural beauty, the island has a typical Mediterranean climate which is a big drawcard for UK visitors. The peak season for tourism on Zante runs from May to October when the weather is warm and dry. Zante is one of the sunniest islands in Greece and temperatures are up in the low 30Cs in summer so the beaches are kept busy. August can see the arrival of strong winds but these provide cool relief from the heat. If you plan to travel in peak season and stay in a popular resort book well in advance and expect to pay high season prices for flight tickets and hotels.
Off season:
Winters tend to be mild but wet from December through February on Zante which is why it is such a green island.
