About the Beach

Pefkoulia is a massive and very impressive sandy beach located on the northwestern coast of Lefkada, known for its long stretch of golden sand and the dense pine forest that frames the shore. The name itself refers to the pine trees, which provide a fresh scent and a beautiful green backdrop to the bright turquoise water. It is a well-organized beach with a few beach bars and sunbeds, but its sheer size ensure that there are always quiet and unorganized sections for those who prefer solitude. The water is deep and usually has a gentle surf, providing a very invigorating and grand swimming experience. It is a very accessible destination, located just a short drive from Lefkada Town, making it a popular choice for a quick dip or a full day of sunbathing. The scale of the horizon and the quality of the sand make it one of the island's most prized natural assets.
