Holidays in Lefkas

 

An introduction to Lefkas

Sweeping down the western coast of the mainland, the Preveza region is Greece laid bare. Most people come here for the beaches, which have shied away from the trappings of tourism. In places like Monolithi and Kastrosykia, the white sands are endless and untouched.

The region’s interior is just as undressed. Olive groves, mountain ranges and nature reserves colonise the backcountry. The Vikos National Park, for example, is contoured with canyons, giant gorges, caves and rivers.

Then there are Preveza’s towns to consider. Even the main tourist spots cling to the apron strings of tradition. In Parga Town, the narrow streets are still lined with classical villas and ancestral mansions. And, although you’ll find a clutch of cosmopolitan wine bars near the harbour, family-run tavernas and ouzeries are still in the majority.

At the tip of the Preveza region you’ll find the unsung hero of the Greek Islands. Lefkas is wrapped in a band of unspoilt beaches, its interior is covered with vineyards and pine forests, and its hilltop villages have barely changed in the last century.
