Argassi Beach, in all of its splendor, is known to be a true oasis on the eastern coast of Zakynthos, in Greece. Stretching along the lovely resort town of Argassi, this beach is a mixed bag of pebbles and golden sand in most areas. Being very shallow and of crystal-clear waters, the beach is the most ideal for swimming, especially for families with young children. The beautiful sandy beach is easily accessible because of its nearby hotels, and it should take only 5-10 minutes by walking along the narrow alleys down to the coast. The beach also offers a variety of water activities, including jet skiing, pedalos, and parachuting. In case you feel a little hungry, snack bars and restaurants are lined up along the beach and afford a wide range of choices for the dent.
