Latest reviews on Agios Nikolaos Niras's beaches

Agiofili Beach
8 Jessa Kaeli

This beach is truly a gem with its crystal clear waters. However, it tends to be quite crowded and bustling with activity. Be prepared to shell out some cash, as parking costs 7 euros and renting an umbrella and beds comes to 15 euros. If you're looking to save some money, it's best to bring your own beach equipment. Although the road leading to the beach is a bit rough, a regular car should suffice - there's no need for a 4x4.

Porto Katsiki beach
8 Zephyr Kostovici.

The view is stunning, but the beach tends to get quite crowded. On the bright side, you can conveniently order food and drinks while soaking up the sun. Just keep in mind that parking comes with a 10 euro fee.

Vasiliki Beach
8 Jared Michaels

Vasiliki, a charming location in Lefkada, is an ideal spot for strolling, indulging in delectable cuisine, and embarking on a delightful boat excursion. Although the beach is primarily rocky, the shallow waters are perfect for young children to frolic in. Furthermore, windsurfers can indulge in their passion at a designated area.

Ammoussa Beach
10 Nicolette Ramirez Hernandez

This beach is truly exceptional, with immaculately clear waters and ample free parking. For a mere 7 euros, you can rent two sunbeds and an umbrella, making it the perfect spot for swimming and snorkeling. If you're feeling adventurous, consider renting a kayak or sea bike - a small one will run you 10 euros, while a larger one that can hold four people costs 15. It's highly recommended to take advantage of this opportunity to explore the nearby islands, where you can discover some secluded beaches that are only accessible by small boats or kayaks. Just be sure to arrive before 11 o'clock to avoid the crowds, and bring along some sea shoes as the beach is not sandy.

Egremni Beach

This beach in Lefkada is truly a sight to behold, with its stunning natural beauty that leaves visitors in awe. However, due to its challenging access, it has unfortunately become somewhat overrated. The steep 1.1 km slope with a 15% incline and 400 steps can prove to be a difficult journey both going down and up, especially for those with heart conditions. It is advisable to return after sunset when the temperature is cooler. It is important to note that there are no food or drink options available, so it is recommended to come prepared and travel light. In my opinion, the effort to reach this beach may not be worth it as the view from above is just as breathtaking. Lefkada boasts a variety of other equally spectacular beaches that are much easier to access.

Afteli Beach

If you arrive before 10:30 AM, you can park for free and enjoy the bar and restaurant for refreshments and meals. The service is prompt and the prices are fair. While it can get busy, the beach still maintains its idyllic ambiance, making it a perfect spot for a day in the sun. A set of two sunbeds and an umbrella can be rented for just 8 euros.
