Getting ashore
Ships call at Lefkada town, on the island’s east side, and passengers land at the port or by tender.
Watch-outs
Lefkada is linked to the mainland by a bridge, and traffic is busy in summer. Buses are limited, so book taxis or tours for the beaches.
Lefkada town
The town has Venetian-style houses, a clock tower, the old harbour and a waterfront of cafés.
Porto Katsiki and Egremni
Porto Katsiki is a famous beach beneath white cliffs, reached by steep steps from the car park. Egremni is another cliff-backed beach reached on foot.
Nydri and the lagoon
Nydri is a resort village with boat trips to the Meganisi islands and the Dimosari waterfall.
Food & shopping
Greek food includes fresh fish, moussaka and local wines. Tavernas by the harbour are the easiest choice.
Money & connectivity
The currency is the euro. Cards are accepted in most places, and ATMs are in the town.
Accessibility & mobility
The town is flat near the port, but the beaches involve steep steps and cliff paths. Ask your operator for accessible vehicles.
