Vasiliki sits at the centre of South Lefkada, internationally known as one of the top-10 beaches for windsurfing around the world.
If you are a fan of boat trips, then the marina at Vasiliki offers trips out to the beautiful beaches, including Agiofilli beach. The entire island is popular with boaters, with yachts for international tourists and locals alike, ready for you to explore the hidden magic along the coastline!
Lefkada itself is easily reached from the mainland via a causeway, so you can rent a car for your convenience and explore the island on the way to the villa. Aktion International Airport is just 38km away by car, whilst Athens is 408km away. Perfect for family holidays the island is filled with stunning beaches, luscious green valleys and soaring mountains.

If you are looking for a day excursion away from the villa, then the Nydri waterfall is a beautiful spot to travel to, less than 30km from the villa’s front door. After driving to the waterfall, you can enjoy a scenic hike through olive and citrus groves and over rocks to the glistening pool at the bottom of the falls. You can swim in the refreshing water canyon, watching the waterfall from above.
The food on Lefkada is similar to mainland Greece and the rest of the Mediterranean area, with the magical addition of breath-taking mountain views from many of the local eateries! Make sure you try a local moussaka and some souvlaki, or for vegetarians the fried cheese, delicious Greek salads and zingy dips, all of course, served with traditional bread.
