Zakynthos

Zakynthos Airport is situated midway between Kalamaki and Laganas, approximately 4 kilometres from major resorts like Tsilivi. A public bus service, operated by KTEL Zakynthos, runs directly to Zakynthos Town. The bus stop is located outside the terminal building in the arrivals area. This service runs frequently during the high season, but its schedule is subject to change, particularly on Sundays and during the quieter months. For a direct transfer, a taxi stand is also available directly in front of the terminal building. The approach for landing offers a dramatic view for passengers, as aircraft typically fly over Laganas Bay before making a 180-degree turn above Kalamaki Beach. This beach forms part of the National Marine Park, a key nesting site for endangered loggerhead sea turtles. To protect them, a night-time flight curfew is in effect between 10pm and 5am.

There are several pharmacies in Zakynthos Town and at least one in most resorts. If you require medicine after midnight, a doctor must contact the pharmacy first. For the location of the nearest pharmacy, you should ask at your hotel.

Greece uses the Type F electrical plug with two round pins, same as in many countries in Continental Europe. The standard voltage is 230 volts, but some hotels have special plugs for 110 or 120-volt shavers.
