Madouri, the small island across Nydri, where the neoclassic villa of Aristotelis<br />

Valaoritis is located.<br />

Islands, Ithaca, Kefalonia, Central Greece and Meganisi,<br />

a beautiful island ideal for restful holidays. Moreover,<br />

near Nydri, on the uphill road that leads to the mountain<br />

of Skaros, there is the exceptionally beautiful gorge of<br />

Dimosari with running waters, water falls and small<br />

lakes. At the heart of the bay, the road meets the<br />

picturesque village of Vlychos, while in the opposite<br />

shores extends the summer resort of Geni.<br />

A bit further to the south there is Poros, a characteristic<br />

village of <strong>Lefkada</strong>, built amphitheatrically in a region<br />

with abundant vegetation, and Mikros Yalos, a<br />

marvellous pebble beach, and finally Syvota, a<br />

picturesque harbour. To the west, the road leads to<br />

Marantochori, from where side roads lead to the sandy<br />

beaches of the southern part of the island (Afteli,<br />

Ammousa, ect) and to ‘Chirospilia’, a cave of great<br />

archeological interest. The road ends in Vassiliki, a<br />

charming village and popular summer resort, featuring a<br />

fantastic beach, ideal for windsurfing. From Vassiliki<br />

there are ferries to Kefalonia and Ithaca, as well as boats<br />

to the cape of Lefkata.<br />

Across the eastern leeward shores that gently spill into<br />

the sea, there is the western coast, characterised by steep<br />

slopes, impressive bays and long beaches.<br />

Starting from the city, you will encounter Fryni (near<br />

the Monastery of Faneromeni) and the picturesque small<br />

Due to the tectonic faults of the Ionian Sea, the coast of <strong>Lefkada</strong> is<br />

characterised by dramatic bays and a “dense” anaglyph, forming<br />

landscapes of unique natural beauty.
