There are also
always a number of traditional Greek fishing boats in the harbour here
at St Nicholas,
as well as a few sailing boats to add to the charm – plenty to keep you
entertained while you relax by the sea.
From the pebbly beach at Saint Nicholas of the north, you can sit and
watch the boats roll in. There is a daily summer ferry connection with
the nearby island of Keffalonia, the neighbouring island most famous for
being the wartime setting of Captain Corelli's Mandolin.
There is a small white pebble beach located next to the port of St
Nicholas, the largest marina in the North of Zante, Zakynthos Greek
islands. The beach at St Nickolas in the far North of Zante is
very pretty, looking over a small island in the distance with ancient
monastery ruins.
Despite being a port village, the swimming waters here
are always clean and clear, and many people enjoy a dip here to cool off
during their trip around the north of Zakynthos.

There are a number of traditional tavernas and a few mini-markets along the beach
front at St Nicholas of the north – with fresh fish coming into the port
regularly, this is a great place to stop for a bite to eat by the sea in
Zakynthos.
