It was incredibly choppy when we arrived. My family had been there before and said it was perfectly calm, but not today. The waves were quite strong. Although it's a rocky beach, it was beautiful. When we arrived, we went for lunch because it was a long walk. The road down was very steep and in first/second gear, so it was a spectacular sight for anyone who doesn't drive. The food was truly amazing, and the staff were wonderful! I paid for beds at the bar upstairs. Unfortunately, there's no restroom there, which makes no sense since they sell hot and cold drinks. You can go to the other restroom when you arrive, which is also the case if you use the restaurant. Luckily, we went for dinner when we arrived, and since there were eight of us, we took over a few tables.

It's a beautiful, well-equipped beach. There are many beach clubs with very affordable prices. Parking can be difficult if you arrive too late. Despite the large number of boats, the sea remains crystal clear. Pedal boats and canoes are available for rent.

It's one of the most beautiful and wildest beaches on Lefkada. The road to it is steep and winding, but by island standards, it's a true luxury and extremely comfortable. The beach is huge (pebbles and gravel), the waters are breathtaking emerald and turquoise, parking is ample and free, there are two beach clubs and two bars, but if you walk a bit along the coastline, you'll be on your own in August. Long live Greece, and keep everything clean until I see you!

Lefkada was the place where we enjoyed our most enjoyable swim. The road is relatively easier than the bays in this part of the island. And once you arrive, you can at least find a place to park your car. There's also an organized beach, or you can just hang out on the sand.
