Preparing your trip to Lefkada: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. Active tourists who do not want to limit their vacations to beach activities should not go on a trip in the summer. Throughout the summer, quite hot weather prevails on the island. September is considered the best time to combine beach recreations and excursions.
2. Tourists with children would prefer the east coast resorts where there are almost no strong wind and waves on the beaches. The west coast is considered optimal for water sports.
3. Most popular beaches are rocky, which is why some tourists use special beach shoes during their stay here. There are no sharp stones here, so it is quite possible to do without it.
4. Not all beaches are equipped with sunbeds and parasols. These accessories can be taken along or rented at one of the many rental points.
