ENTERTAINMENT
There are two main season's to
living in Zante, summer season and winter season. If you are living here
for the whole year then your shopping and entertainment habits will change from
one season to the other. In summer the resorts with their Tavernas, Bars,
Restaurants and Discos will be open and eager to serve, in the winter most will
close and certainly all the English Discos will (Although there are some Greek
discos which will be open) . However as the island becomes more
inhabited with Foreign citizens, more bars are staying open in the main
town and the resorts.
Summer season
runs from May - October
Winter season
