Beach overall scores
Avali Beach (Ioanian Islands) is located outside the Kalamitsi settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Lefkada island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Avali Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"Driving to the beach may be a bit challenging, but with some experience, you can handle it. The beachside bar exudes a great atmosphere, and their food is delicious, yet affordable. The beach itself is stunning, with gentle waves lapping against the shore. It's recommended to bring your own umbrella, as there aren't many rentals available."

And the best part? It's huge, so you won't have to worry about getting sand in your face from the person next to you. Sure, the road to get there is a bit of a bumpy ride, but jus..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Avali Beach (Lefkada island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Avali Beach (Lefkada island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Avali Beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
