Overview
A roughly 2.5 km stretch of white sand and white pebbles at the foot of limestone cliffs over 200 m high on Lefkada's southwest coast. Access was lost for years after an earthquake; a rebuilt staircase has been in place since 2021. The climb back up is long, especially in heat, and no on-beach services are documented.
