Lefkada... hidden treasure among Greece islands

A lot of Europeans dreams about visit Seychelles or Caribbean, but sometime they dont realize what kind of" traveller´s treasures" we have here in Europe. And Lefkada is one of them.

Lefkada is one of the islands where you can find everything.

 If you do kite, then go to Gyra beach, but still enjoy sandy beach with small stones and turquise water.
Sometime during the kite session you can meet some curious turtle. If you like diving, then you can stay on Gyra too, because right in the corner of Gyra is small reef, where you can see the fishes of all colours, but if you like to watch just fishes without diving glasses wake up in the early morning go to the water, stay quietly in one place and just watch in to the water, and you can be sure that you will see the fishes too,



And how the day runs, its evening and you continue Yours vacation, if you stay near Gyra, you have to go to Lefkas (the biggest city on the island), but not at night,but before the sunset, in the center of the city is a small promenade with far away view on the Gyras beach but it doesnt change nothing about the sunset, go to the small bridge which is next to promenade, and enjoy the view. The sunset will shine  all shades of yellow, orange and red.After that with an amazing feelings and hopefully peace in heart continue with  walk throught the city, visit the small shops, and enjoy tasting Souvlaki, Gyros and all                                                                                             what the taverns offer.

              I ve visited alot of places in Greece, but in Lefkas the cuisine was the best.

Thats one part of the island, another part maybe more famous is Nidry, small town on Lefkada, its very
popular because of night life, small beaches, and expensive stuff. To be honest, even I love Lefkada, I could never ever stay in Nidry. Nidry is an amazing place for trips, but thats it , because the beaches over there re too small and overcrowded by tourist.




But anyway Nidry had also bright sides. Right from the beach you can look on  the Oasis islands, which re just magnificent. If you want to explore them more, then just rent a boat for a day and enjoy the exploring the places, you thought you could never seen, or you didnt know that they are so close to you (if you re from the US, then there is just one advice, forget Paris or London, those places you can see everywhere on the pics, but  Lefkas no. )




Beaches ...

On the island you can find so many beaches, few of them are really famous.
The most famous is called Porto Katsiki, is pretty big beach (bigger than usual famous beaches), its stony beach with turquise water, I dont know, I was not too charmed by, maybe because there is always too many people.






Another famous is Egremni ... This beach is the place where I always wanted to go, always planned it but I really never got there, but from the parking place by the way it looked nice.









But if I skip another beaches...

 Milos beach ...

Kathisma beach










There is still my favourite one, the name is Gyra, yeah you ve read about it on the top of the article but this beach is really my the most favorite. There is just everything except milions tourist...

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it.
