Lefkada is one of the few Greek islands accessible by car, making it a popular getaway for mainland Greeks. Unlike other Ionian islands, Lefkada remains relatively undeveloped, boasting some of the most spectacular beaches in Greece.
Locals favor Porto Katsiki, Egremni, and Kathisma for their breathtaking turquoise waters and dramatic cliffs. The island is also known for its windsurfing scene, particularly in Vasiliki. With its mix of stunning nature, traditional villages, and easy accessibility, Lefkada is a beloved destination for Greeks looking to enjoy the best of the Ionian Sea.
