The pedestrian seafront is lined with pretty flowers, colourful houses and picturesque tavernas serving traditional Greek cuisine, including fresh seafood, moussaka and souvlaki. You will also find boat hire here.

The closest beach at Afteli has a shingle shoreline and emerald waters making it a prime destination for snorkellers.

Great Things to Do Near Cactus

Visit the island of Meganisi

Take the ferry from Nydri over to Meganisi for the day (with the car or on foot). The island is much smaller than Lefkada and has a population of about 2,000. Once on the island make the most of the impressive scenery, beaches, harbours and local tavernas.

A day on the beach

Mikros Gialos, often awarded a Blue Flag, is a lovely beach on the east coast of Lefkada, popular with sunbathers and swimmers. Just behind the beach there are various bars and tavernas, usually open May - September.

Sample the Greek cuisine

The closest tavernas can be found along the pedestrian street along the harbour front in Sivota. Here you will find family run restaurants serving moussaka, grilled meats and fish, courgette fritters, souvlaki and much more.

Head west

The famous beaches of Porto Katsiki and Egremni are on the west coast of Lefkada. You can either access them via car or head to Vasiliki or Nydri and pick up a boat excursion instead.

Spend the evening in Lefkada Town

The island's capital, here you will find a charming labyrinth of streets with shops, bars, restaurants and ice cream parlours in abundance.

Enjoy a cocktail

....or two in Sivota Bay, watching the yachts and fishing boats return to the harbour after a day out at sea.

Snorkel at Afteli

A small pebble beach with emerald waters. Here you will also find a small beach bar and a few parasols and sunbeds to rent. Don't forget your beach shoes!

Take a walk around the Dimosari waterfalls

Nestled in the hills and forests above Nydri, the Dimosari waterfalls are a haven of beauty and tranquility. Put on your most comfortable shoes and spend the morning walking around and exploring this impressive landscape. The waterfalls form small pools among the rocks on the hillside, so take your swimwear with you as you may be tempted to take a dip in warm weather!

Sip coffee in the marina

Head down to Sivota for coffee and treat yourself to a sweet pastry from one of the local bakeries.

Rent a rib

In Sivota, you can rent a small boat or rib without a licence, the perfect way to explore the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea and reach beaches not accessible by car.
