A Guide to the Best Beaches in Lefkada

The island boasts a string of breathtaking sandy beaches, each with its own unique charm and character

Newsroom January 19 12:05

Just off the west coast of the Greek mainland, in the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea, the island of Lefkada is an absolute haven for beach lovers and water sports enthusiasts. The island boasts a string of breathtaking sandy beaches, each with its own unique charm and character. From the long, sweeping stretches of white sand at Agios Ioannis and Kathisma, to the more secluded coves of Porto Katsiki and Egremni, Lefkada has something for everyone.

But the island’s beauty is not limited to its beaches – the clear cobalt blue waters surrounding Lefkada are also a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. From windsurfing and kiteboarding at Vassiliki and Agios Ioannis, to snorkeling and diving at the island’s many hidden coves and inlets, there’s no shortage of activities to keep you busy. Whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, or try your hand at a new water sport, Lefkada has it all.
