Set in the Ionian sea of Greece Lefkada (Lefkas) still is not that well known as it’s bigger northern neighbour Corfu. Thus, it is still spared out from masstourism, even though it is probably the most diverse island you can find. Reaching from numerous sandy or pebbled beaches with crystal clear turquoise water, either kilometers long (i.e. Gialos, Milos) or surrounded by huge white cliffs (i.e. Egrimni, Porto Katsiki, Agiofili). The latter is how the island received it’s name (Lefkas = ancient greek = The White).
