Lefkas Holidays

Nikiana is a relaxed fishing village nestled at the foothills of Mount Skaros on the east coast of Lefkas. It’s a tranquil little spot with authentic Greek tavernas on the waterside and friendly bars in the village centre, not to mention a secluded little beach along the coast. The nearby town of Nidri helps out with the nightlife, while the capital, Lefkas Town, is a good daytrip option.

• Porto Galini Seaside Resort And Spa

Nidri is a lively little town on the east coast of Lefkas island. Its 2 roads run parallel with each other – there’s the bustling main street and the long harbour road. Along the water you’ll find authentic Greek tavernas and international cuisine, while the main street is heaving with cheery bars and late-night clubs. Just north of Nidri there’s a road bridge to the Greek mainland, plus there’s a little cluster of islands just off the coast to explore.

• George Hotel
• Athos Hotel

The pace of life at this hillside village in Lefkas[F1] , just off the Greek mainland, is blissfully slow. Around the square, overlooked by the impressive Church of Aghios Spiridonas, there are just a few cafés and tavernas where locals gather for gossip over a glass of ouzo. Olive groves provide the mountain backdrop, while the capital, Lefkas Town, lies patiently in wait just up the road.

• Villa Calma
• Villa Avra

Aghios Ioannis is a peaceful village in northern Lefkas, an island just off the Greek mainland. It’s a laid-back place spread across idyllic green plains. To the north it’s bordered by the wide Gyra Lagoon, and to the west by a long sand-and-shingle beach dotted with 18th-century windmills. You’ll find authentic Greek tavernas and beach bars along the waterside, while the nightlife of bustling Lefkas Town is just 5 minutes away on the other side of the lagoon.
