At the top of Porto Vromi, in Maries, you'll find Aeras restaurant overlooking the bay. This is the ideal place to eat after a refreshing swim. Aeras offers Zakynthian cuisine at its best as well as a good variety of local wines. We highly recommend trying the Aeras salad as well as some local hard cheeses on offer!
