The last paradise some call it, others caress it as the Caribbean of Greece… It is clear that the island of Lefkada is really attractive both in terms of tourism and especially in terms of seascapes, some spectacular in fact.
Wherever you go on Lefkada, you will enjoy dreamy landscapes and scenery, which will delight your eyes.
And in our pilgrimages along and across the island we passed by many beautiful beaches, even if not at all. So I thought I'd make a summary of who we were.
From my point of view, the most beautiful beaches are on the west coast and in the south of the island. Of course, we will discover others whenever we go there.
Below is a list of 10 beaches that definitely deserve your attention.
Very close to the town of Lefkada, extremely easy to access, is the beach of Agios Ioannis . Wide, with sand, to the liking of water sports enthusiasts from what I noticed.
Another beach that I really liked is Pefkoulia , also wide, with sand
… And which looks great seen from above.
Followed the beach of Agios Nikitas
… Very close to taverns and shops, extremely easy to reach.
From Agios Nikitas you can walk to the famous Milos Beach in about 20 minutes . You can also get here by boat.
I really liked the beach Megali Petra…
… Which is quite difficult to reach by car, on a winding and narrow road. And the parking lot below, at Kavalikefta beach, is quite small. So, be careful to go there early, to have a place to park your car.
Follow Porto Katsiki beach
… Which has its own car park, quite generous and which costs 5 Euro / day. Then, to get to the beach, you have to go down a not very long series of stairs.
We also liked the small beach in the town of Vasiliki , extremely easily accessible, especially if you are staying there in the area.
But the most beautiful beach in Lefkada is definitely Agiofili .
Which can be accessed from Vasiliki, on a narrow, dusty and quite bad road. But at its end there is a fairly generous paved parking lot. And you have to walk to the beach for about 10-15 minutes, during which time you go down some pretty steep stairs.
But the beach is beautiful, covered with white gravel of all sizes. So I also recommend special shoes here.
Another small beach that we liked is Afteli.
Which can also be reached on winding roads by car, but which benefits from a fairly generous parking lot.
It also has a tavern for dining or cooling off with a juice or beer.
================================================ ==========
At the moment, these are the beaches we went to on the Greek island of Lefkada. I know, there are some more interesting ones to see, such as Khatisma, Gialos, Avali, Egkremni (which I think is still closed to the public) and others. Which we will discover in a future visit.
