Zante Airport

I am currently on holiday here and am quite close to the airport. I have been watching the comings and goings and just have a question regarding the decisions as to which runway direction is used for take off and landings.

One minute all land on runway 34 then next take off on 16 then it reverts back again, there seems to be very little wind or change of wind direction to keep causing the runway changes

If wind is no factor then is it a pilot/atc decision on which runway direction to use?
