No doubt Lefkada is the island of epic beaches and the ideal destination for beach and water sport vacations. With so many wild, long and wide beaches the island is a heaven on earth for beach lovers!

However, in case of travelling with the family it’s wise to choose a beach that combines fun and safety. And a Blue flag on the beach certifies exactly this. In addition, Gyra, Ai Giannis (Agios Ioannis), Pefkoulia and Kathisma are 4 of the 7 beaches with blue flags which are close to the capital’s hospital. The rest of them, Porto Katsiki, Ponti and Mikros Yalos are close to towns which have adequate first aid health facilities. In any case, a lifeguard with a first aid kit is always on duty on a blue flag beach during the daylight. Also public bins, public toilets and changing rooms are available on these beaches. Finally quite a few beachfront restaurants and canteens offer local specialties.
