The 10 Best Day Trips from in Lefkada, Ionian Islands

January 29, 2022 Giuseppe Pratt

Lefkada's name means "white," from the famous white cliffs of Cape Lefkata, site of an ancient temple of Apollo, where rumor has it that the celebrated Lesbian poet Sappho flung herself from the rocks. To stay with the mythology theme, don’t miss a boat tour on the mighty Odysseia, a colorful replica of a Greek war ship. You can also explore deserted monasteries in the mountains, splash around under the Nidri waterfalls and swim at some of Greece's most famous and beautiful beaches.

The catamaran was spotless and very comfortable. There was plenty of space despite there being 10 of us that day. The swimming spots were wonderful! No snorkel gear but we brought goggles so it didn't really matter. Lunch was very tasty and the staff were incredibly warm and helpful. I have been on trips like this all over the world and this was one of the best!

This private boat tour is ideal for small or bigger groups of people, families, couples, etc. (between 6 and 10 people). It is completely customized according to your needs and the sightseeing that you wish to see. This can include (optionally) Madouri, Scorpios, Meganisi, Kefalonia, Ithaca, Paxos islands and the famous Lefkada west coast beaches like Porto Katsiki, Egremni and Gialos (according to the weather forecast). Obviously it is impossible to visit all the spots, so try to fix a good time schedule in order to focus on what you want to see. It is also a nice activity to fill up your day and get memories as there is a photo shooting on board during the day. After the tour, you will receive 20 professional digital pictures from us as a memory of this great time. Local wines for wine tasting, fruits, cold bottled water and local tastes included.
