A gorgeous island in the Ionian Sea, Lefkada is linked to the mainland with a small bridge. This island is famous all over the world for the magnificent beaches on the western coast. In fact, Porto Katsiki, Kathisma and Egremni are considered among the best beaches in the Mediterranean Sea with their exotic water and the wild landscape. The western coast of Lefkada has lovely seaside villages with cosmopolitan style, such as Nidri, Nikiana, Vlicho and Ligia, while the inland has gorgeous greenery and traditional villages to explore. From Nidri, visitors can take a tour to the islands of Kalamos, Kastos and Scorpios, the famous island of Aristotle Onassis. The ports of Nidri and Vassiliki also connect Lefkada to the neighboring islands of Meganisi, Kefalonia and Ithaca.
