Arrival in Lefkada

The town of Lefkada is 385km away from Athens, 420km away from Thessaloniki and 100km away from Igoumenitsa. A bridge connects Lefkada with mainland Greece. The Preveza-Aktio submerged tunnel makes access to the island easy from northwestern Greece and the port of Igoumenitsa, a major gateway to Western and Central Europe. The Rio-Antirio bridge significantly improved connections between Lefkada and the rest of Greece, as well as the port of Patra, the second major gateway to Europe.

The Aktion National Airport offers several flights per week to Lefkada and other Ionian islands (Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos). It is 10km away from the Lefkada town and 18km away from Agios Nikitas village. Lefkada is connected to Athens by bus service (KTEL) that runs five times a day (5hrs) and twice a week to Thessaloniki (4.5hrs).
