Barefoot hideaways in Lefkada

Lefkada is blessed to be crowned by the most majestic islets of the Ionian; Prigiponisa, Kastos, Kalamos, Meganisi and of course Skorpios, the sanctuary-islet of Onassis and Jackie O. Starting from Nydri village, one can set sail into the signature azure sea of the Ionian and get lost into a truly immersive, castaway experience, creating lifetime memories.

Exhilarating activities

Lefkada is excellent for extreme sport enthusiasts, particularly those who love the beaches of Ai Yiannis and Vassiliki for their perfect windsurfing and kitesurfing conditions and facilities. The choices are endless; paragliding, kneeboarding, jet-skiing, and even prop-plane flying (available at the Aeroclub). Just ask, and you shall receive.

Local goods to remember

The quality of the local cuisine in Lefkada is exquisite. Among the most traditional and world-famous local PDO treasures are the Eglouvi lentils and the air-dried salami. Fresh fish from sea to table, ‘avgotaraho’ (the Greek Bottarga), and divine olive oil and wines complete the local food scene to please even the most discerning connoisseur.

Gem highlights

Lefkada is one of the few Greek islands directly connected to the mainland, easily accessed by car through a floating bridge. Hospitable and lively, the main town welcomes you with its 13th-century Venetian castle, the evocative fortress protecting the church of the patron saint, Agia Mavra. Signature highlights to explore in the main town include the impressive marina full of breathtaking yachts, the bustling main promenade with endless shops and hang-outs, and the trademark wooden bridge to enjoy the sunset. Not far from the main town, one can go hiking to the majestic waterfalls of Nydri or grab a boat for some serious beach hopping. Lefkada’s natural beauty is also praised for its numerous mountain villages, like the amazingly picturesque Karia and Exanthia.
