Lygia

Lygia (also known as Ligia) is a charming fishing village situated on the East coast of Lefkas (Lefkada), only about five kilometres south of Lefkas Town. It is a small fishing village with views of the fortress dedicated to St. George across the straits on the mainland Life here is slow and stress-free. The centre point of the village is it's little harbour where much of the Island's fresh fish arrives every day.

Lygia (Ligia) village consists of one main street with a few tavernas, cafes and bars. A couple of minimarkets, a bakery and two petrol stations add to the selection of places in which to spend your money. This is a very relaxing place to stay. The eating is good - you can sit for hours at one of the harbour front tavernas eating a plate of Gavros (small fried fish) with a Greek salad and a basket of fresh crusty Greek bread, enjoying the breeze off the sea and the views across to the Castle of Saint George on the mainland.

The area is ideal for those who enjoy hill walking as Ligia is framed by pine covered hills and olive groves. Ligia is essentially a family resort which is also popular with older couples. Early and late season attracts walkers when the weather is cooler. It is worth visiting the Valley of Love, a beautiful green location. Also there is a pebble beache (there exactly we are), are usually quiet except for the peak season, where you can enjoy your drink or snack or cold food from our accommodation.

Lygia is a good place to stay to explore the West Coast of Lefkas (Lefkada) with it's spectacular scenery and beaches. The mainland is straight across the sea, or a 15 minute drive via Lefkas Town.. To do this it is best to book a car in advance as there are not many rental companies in the village. For a bit more to do, you can take a bicycle, bus or taxi up to Lefkas Town for the shops and nightlife.
