Beach hopping around Lefkada

In the midst of the clear turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea lies the island of Lefkada, one of the lesser known hotspots for Greek island hoppers. It is connected to the mainland by a narrow causeway, making it one of the few Greek islands that you can drive to. Lefkada remains surprisingly unaffected by tourism and is easily accessible, hospitable and lively.

It’s an Ionian treasure where crystal blue waters, dense forests, cosmopolitan charm and famous beaches make the island one of the most attractive destinations in Greece. When you arrive, you’ll quickly realise that it is even better in real life then any photo you’ve ever seen. There are some beautiful unspoilt bays to be found, and it is worthwhile going off the beaten path. There is no other Greek island or any other Mediterranean spot where you can find such calm and beautiful beaches.

Surrounding beaches include Kathisma, Egremni and Porto Katsiki and are said to be on the list of some of the most beautiful beaches in the Mediterranean. They have won international acclaim and are awarded annually with Blue Flag Awards. The iconic Blue Flag is one of the world's most recognised voluntary eco-labels awarded to beaches, marinas, and sustainable boating tourism operators. Grab a towel and head to one of these iconic beaches where seaside bars and restaurants are endless. Book a day tour by boat if you want to go beach to beach or walk through town and take it all in.
