Description
Levantino is a small, family-run retail shop situated in Kalamaki, on the southeast coast of Zakynthos (also known as Zante). Rather than a shopping centre, it operates as a traditional folk-art and souvenir boutique, offering products that capture the island’s local character, such as handmade crafts, regional olive-oil products, honey, herbal items, and simple gifts that reflect Zakynthian culture. The shop is known for its welcoming atmosphere and authentic selection, making it a favourite among visitors seeking more than mass-produced souvenirs.
Although compact, visiting Levantino takes about 1–2 hours, especially if you enjoy browsing local specialties or chatting with friendly shopkeepers about the island’s traditions. This is not a branded fashion outlet—so expect authentic, rustic souvenirs and artisanal goods at accessible prices. Its modest size makes for an easy, relaxed stop during a day of beach visits or island exploration, and it's a great place to find thoughtful, locally made items to take home.
There are no on-site cafés or restaurants at the boutique itself, but it’s conveniently located within walking distance of several beachfront tavernas and cafés in Kalamaki town. The location also makes it a fitting place to pick up locally made treats or keepsakes before heading to the nearby beach or waterfront. Whether you're looking for a meaningful memento or supporting a local business, Levantino provides a warm and genuine taste of Zakynthos culture.
