Our Impressions |
This is the busiest beach on the island and fortunately is pretty large so can just about cope with the numbers. There’s a lot going on here with ‘turtle tours’, plenty of watersports, bars and cafes and even Chinese massages available on the beach. The sand runs on and on and due to the sheer number of people who trample along it resembles mud in the worst parts. The water here, despite the traffic, is fairly clear and clean. There is a pleasant enough view of Ag. Sostis island to the right of the beach. You can see the pine trees either side of a sandy dip.
The village itself is a resort with an unbelievable number of bars and party people. The evenings are noisy with young revelers on the streets and in the many establishments that offer drinks deals.
Impressions:
Laganas has obtained a venue as a party town and indeed you shouldn’t come here for peace and tranquility. The resort is garish and loud and the beach full of activity and people from the many, many hotels and apartments behind it. But if you are seeking a lively beach with plenty of water sports then it could the ideal place for holidays, Laganas Zante is one of the most famous resorts among UK people.
