Holiday accommodation in Lefkas
Lefkas means pine tree and the hills of this island are clothed in a sea of pine. The coast is lined by numerous small coves and beaches, many pebble, some sand. The East coast generally has calmer seas and a gentler coastline whereas the west coasts slices the sea with perilous cliffs and a harsh rocky shore, hiding some fine beaches between the rocks. Notable beaches include the sandy beach at Dessimi and Vasiliki beach, well known for water sports, especially windsurfing.
In the main town, also named Lefkas, colourful buildings jostle along narrow streets overlooked by a 17th century monastery. The town also serves as the cultural centre of the island, boasting four museums. Friendly tavernas line the seafront.
The Ionian Islands are great for sailing and Lefkas is no exception. Sivota offers safe mooring and a number of lively seafood tavernas.
