How to get to Lefkada?

Since Lefkada is linked to the Greek mainland with a bridge, it is more convenient to reach it by bus or by car. Therefore, there are no ferry connections between Lefkada and any location on the mainland. There are no direct ferries from Athens to Lefkada, too.
You can reach Lefkada by ferry only from Ithaki, Kefalonia and Meganisi. Ferries arrive either on the port on Nidri or on Vasiliki port.
Apart from using the public means of transport, the best way to reach easily and quickly your destination from any of these ports is by car or by taxi.

There is no airport on the beautiful island of Lefkada. The closest one is located in Preveza, a lovely town on the Greek mainland in Epirus. Aktion National Airport receives flights from Corfu and Zakynthos all year round, while during summer there are many extra flights from various locations around Europe. Notice that no flights from Athens International Airport "Eleftherios Venizelos" to Aktion National Airport are carried out.
From Preveza, you can easily reach Lefkada by KTEL bus or by taxi, since the island is linked to the mainland with a bridge. You can find further information about timetables of KTEL buses on www.ktelprevezas.gr.
