Lefkada is one of the most breathtaking Greek islands and it is located in the heart of the Ionian sea. Let us set the scene… White sand and pebbles glistening in the Ionian sun, crystal clear, turquoise waters and wild natural landscapes join forces to create some of the best beaches you will ever see!

Known for the amazing landscape and the exotic water, beaches in Lefkada are considered among the most beautiful in Greece but also in the Mediterranean Sea.

The most popular and world-known beaches are Porto Katsiki , Egremni  and Kathisma. If you’re after more isolated beaches, though, head to Milos, Afteli, and Kalamitsi, to chill out and relax away from the crowds.
