Holidays to Agios Dimitrios are hard to beat for peace and quiet, yet its central location puts Zante Town right in reach.
Sleeping beauty
Dreamy sights, like a tiny chapel and an old-fashioned windmill, add to the sleepy feel of Agios Dimitrios – found on Zante, one of Greece's Ionian islands. You can be at Tsilivi Beach within 15 minutes' drive, while sunbathers will love the three-kilometre stretch of golden sand at Alykes.
A day in Zante Town
It's just a 10-minute drive to Zante Town's main shopping spot – Alexandra Roma. This is the place to pick up Greek souvenirs like textiles, jewellery and hand-carved olive wood ornaments. The al fresco cafés of St Mark Square are ideal lunch spots – you can walk off your indulgence with a tour of the nearby museums afterwards.
