4Meganisi – Small Island, Big Sense of Calm

Tucked between Lefkada and the mainland, Meganisi is one of the Ionian’s best-kept secrets. Its small size works in its favor, making it ideal for slow travel and crowd-free exploration. The island is dotted with pine-covered hills, quiet coves, and crystal-clear waters, but unlike Lefkada, it remains refreshingly low-key even in high season.

Villages like Spartochori and Katomeri retain a traditional atmosphere, with narrow streets, family-run tavernas, and sweeping sea views. Meganisi attracts sailors and travelers who prefer understated elegance, long lunches, and tranquil swims in hidden bays rather than organized beach clubs.
