Alikanas holidays:
Hidden amongst the olive groves and pine trees near the village making Alikanas one of the more picturesque villages on the island of Zantes. Situated to the south of Alykes Bay, Alikanas is one of the “sleepier” villages on the Zante coast but sleepy doesn’t need to mean boring. Though there has been some commercial buildup in the last ten years or so, it remains a quiet fishing village near the Amoudi Beach. Cheap holidays on Zantes can be relaxing, restful experiences and one that shouldn’t be missed.

Thought to be the location of the ancient village of Arcadia, some Mycenean vessels have been discovered wrecked off the coast of this town. Recently, the water sports from Alykes has moved here so now the hotels offer either as a benefit or for a fee, pedaloes, bingos, paragliding and the banana boat. Although if a more serene holiday is what you had in mind, simply spending your days on the beach and your evenings at a local restaurant is possible in Alikanas as well.

If it’s a little retail therapy you need, the village has many shops from which to purchase souvenirs and gifts for your loved ones, such as leather handbags, jewelry, embroidery or local wines and cheeses. Most of the restaurants serve seafood taken directly from their waters by local fishermen.

On the edge of Alikanas is the original village now called Old Alykanas. This ancient, beautiful village is near the coast and has managed to hang onto their traditional Greek ambiance in spite of the world’s best efforts.

The hotels in Alikanas offer an array of room rates with half- and all-inclusive boards being the most popular. There are also ample space in the hotels for larger groups or families traveling though this city isn’t serviced by any tourist agencies, though that could change.

In selecting your next destination, why not choose a cheap holiday in Agios Sostis ? You can bring just yourself, your significant other or the family and have the confidence in knowing you will all be well taken care of. The people of Zante are gracious and welcoming to the outside world, relishing in seeing strangers fall in love with the island on which most of them have always lived.
