Discover the True Beauty of Greece

LONDON, May 25, 2012-

  Corfu and Zante are widely regarded as two of Greece’s most beautiful islands. With
the nation’s highest rainfall, scores of vegetables and herbs thrive in Corfu, especially
in spring. With its beguiling landscape of wildflowers, and cypress trees rising out of
shimmering olive groves, this is the perfect time to take advantage of cheap Cosmos Corfu
holidays [http://www.cosmos.co.uk/greece/corfu/holidays ].

  Known for centuries as the ‘Flower of the East,’ beautiful Zante is a land of
contrasts, with stunning green scenery, white cliffs, sleepy olive groves and dusky
mountains. Zante holidays from Cosmos [http://www.cosmos.co.uk/greece/zante/holidays ]
boast long sandy beaches and crystal blue waters. This island is perfect for soaking up
the sun.

  Corfu

  If you can manage to drag yourself away from the numerous beaches of white sand and
crystal clear waters, Corfu offers far more than just a beach holiday. Corfu Town is a
stunning mix of Italian, French and Greek influences, and is a maze of narrow streets
dominated by the 16th century fortress. Around every corner can you can find a chapel, old
mansion or secret garden square to explore.

  If you’re after something a little livelier on your cheap holiday then Corfu doesn’t
disappoint. For excellent nightlife, look no further than the non-stop resorts of Sidari
or Kavos. With clubs, bars, pubs, and both English and traditional restaurants, these
bustling resorts are ready to entertain you at every hour of the day.

  Zante

  The most famous of Zante’s trademark white sandy beaches is Shipwreck Beach. It’s
characterised by the remains of a boat marooned in the middle of a stunning white sandy
beach, surrounded by impressive cliffs.

  Holidays to Zante are a must for nature lovers too, as the island is famous as a
nesting area for loggerhead turtles. Visitors travelling to the island in the summer
months may be fortunate enough to catch the baby turtles hatching in the evening, or to
see the adult turtles swimming near the beach. For a secluded beach break, Gerakas beach
is also a protected area for turtles, and is one of the best stretches of sand in on the
island.

  Weather

  Both islands benefit from hot, sunny summers and mild winters, and the humidity in
both islands explains why they are so fertile. From May onwards, both islands are already
in the balmy mid 20s.
