The Vasilikos peninsula forms a quiet, traditional resort area on Zante’s southeastern coast, characterised by its natural beauty, olive groves, and relaxed atmosphere. Unlike the island's busier resorts, it offers a retreat focused on tranquillity rather than large hotels or nightlife. Restaurants along the main road and seafront serve national dishes and fresh seafood. The area features several distinct beaches. Vasilikos Beach itself, near the old village of Ano Vasilikos, is a sandy cove with calm, clear waters and rocky areas popular for snorkelling. A short distance east, St Nicholas Beach provides more activity, offering water sports like jet-skis alongside relaxed beach bars and sunset views from the Chapel of Agios Nikolaos. Further south, Gerakas Beach faces west across Laganas Bay, where a long stretch of sand is backed by well-tended olive groves and dense vegetation.

Extending between Dead Chest Island and Salt Island southeast of Road Town, Rhone Marine Park is an 800-acre treasure trove of marine species where corals, fish, turtles, lobsters and many other marine species drift around the famous wreck of the Royal Mail Steamer Rhone. Sunk by a hurricane in 1867, the steamship has over time become the most popular dive site in the British Virgin Islands.

North of Fårö, Gotska Sandön is the remotest island in the Baltic. Miles of sandy beaches and a peace that is rare nowadays, make this a unique spot... A hidden treasure, you could say. You can reach the island by boat from Nynäshamn or Fårösund, from May and September. Cottage or tent accommodation. Most visitors stay several days, but day-trips operate from Nynäshamn.

With over two hundred years in operation, the Callwood Rum Distillery is one of the oldest establishments in the British Virgin Islands, located in the stunning — and aptly named — Cane Garden Bay.
