Located in piazza Cavour, the famous fountain La Fontana Della Pigna was built in 1543 by Giovanni da Carrara, although in part it dates back to the Roman period. The fountain is of great significance as it served as the sole source of drinking water in the city until the public aqueduct was established in 1912. Additionally, there is an inscription on the fountain referring to Leonardo da Vinci's delight upon seeing this fountain.

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.
