  • It's very easy to get to Lefkada.
    Just take the plane and fly to "Aktio" airport. The city of Lefkada, is at the north of the island, approximately 20' by car or bus away from the airport.
    The island is connected to the mainland by a long causeway and floating bridge, as well as the island's capital city.

    There are plenty of taxi's to be found on the harbour front in Nidri and they are an inexpensive way of getting around Lefkas. All taxi's are modern and air conditioned. They hold a maximum of four people and that is including children. For those of you needing transport from Preveza Airport it is best to book in advance. A taxi from the airport to Nidri will cost you around €57. Another thing to remember is child seats are not a legal requirement in Greece and so therefore are not provided.

  • Lefkes has no public transportation within the village itself. Poor signage, steep inclines, and a town that follows the curvature of the surrounding hillside, make for a difficult stroll for the infirm.

    Your thigh muscles will scream at you as the trek progresses, and we didn't find too many opportunities to sit and rest, either on benches or local bars.

    However, we did find a lovely little park, with a great view of the countryside, complete with benches. Believe it was located within the village centre (as such).

    Suggest very strongly that you save your visit until you have use of a private vehicle. There just isn't enough to keep you interested for the four hours between pick-up times.

    Expect a crowded and noisy bus filled with beach going youngsters, both going and coming.

    Summer excursion boats connect Nidri and Vassiliki to Sami, Fiskardo and Poros on Kefalonia and Kioni (Ithaca). These services are always being amended, so check first.
    Daily boat from Nidri to Meganisi.
    Ferries leave Vassiliki for Kefalonia and Ithaca once or twice a day.

    Boat excursions to Porto Katsiki and other innaccessible beaches from Vassiliki, weather permitting.

    We cannot stay in resort without hiring a car. We hired a strange purple thing from Nick, the proprietor of Lighthouse Restaurant in Vassiliki. It may not have been new but the only thing that went wrong were the wipers which Nick managed to fix with a pair of pliers.
    Michael used to sit for hours steering the stationary car while we sat and had a drink. Greek granny would always give him a chocolate wafer bar so the steering wheel ended up horribly sticky. She also used to haul him out from his enjoyment to give him a cuddle!!!.

    How do I get out??

    In 1988 children's car seats seemed to be unheard of so we had to improvise. We used a baby back- carrier strapped into the back of the vehicle. It did keep him restrained but I don't think it was overly comfortable for him. Still, he wasn't one for complaining (and still isn't at 18).

    We had a great day on the Seven Island Cruise aboard the Ikaros. The cruise departs from Nidri Harbour at 10.00am and returns at 6.30pm. The first stop we made was at Porto Katsiki Beach where everyone was allowed of the boat for a swim. Situated along Lefkada's southwestern coast it is noted to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. Access by land is down 347 steps and many people will take the taxi boats available. Fiskardo in Kefalonia was the next port of call, the only village that was not destroyed by the earthquake of 1953. We stayed here for 1hr 30mins to take a leisurely walk through the picturesque village to enjoy shopping and lunch. Ithaka was the next stop but unfortunately we were not allowed to stay there as there wasn't any room for us to dock so we then made our way to Meganisi and its Papanikolis Cave where a greek submarine hid during the war, then the three Islands of Onassis which are Scorpios - Sparti - Kastri where we had a chance to have another swim. No one is allowed on these Islands. The last Island we passed before returning to Lefkas was Madouri which is a part of Greek history where the great poet Aristotelis Valaoritis was born and raised and where he wrote some of his best work. The commentry throughout the cruise is spoken in English, Greek, Italian and French. The cost of this cruise was €15 each which in my opinion is not at all expensive for a really enjoyable and interesting day out

  • Address: Nydri Harbour, Lefkada. Greece

    Among the beautiful snow-white houses of Lefkes, are the distinguished and beautiful churches of the 15th-17th century, like the marble church of the Holy Trinity (Agia Triada) with its old icons, or the churches of Agia Varvara and Agia Theodosia.

    In the settlement, there is also a remarkable folklore museum (unfortunately closed when we were there), and many workshops for pottery and weaving. What is worth visiting at Lefkes, approximately 4 km away, is the site of the archaeological excavations where ancient marble quarries have been traced, as well as the Monastery of Panagia Myrtidiotissa Thapsanon, Agios Ioannis Kaparos and the Monastery "Panagia sta Kelia" (the Virgin in Cells).
