What to Do in Agios Nikitas & Around

Experience the Essence of Lefkada – From the Village to the Sea

Agios Nikitas may be a small village, but it offers plenty to fill your days with beauty, relaxation, and adventure. Whether you’re here for beach time, nature, gastronomy, or culture, this little gem on the west coast of Lefkada has something for everyone.

Walk to Mylos Beach

Take the scenic path that starts just 80 meters from Central Studios and leads you over the hill to the untouched paradise of Mylos Beach. It’s about a 20–25 minute walk through nature with stunning views. You can also take a boat taxi from Agios Nikitas beach during the summer.

Swim at Kathisma Beach

Just 2.5 km away, Kathisma is one of the island’s most iconic beaches — organized, wide, and vibrant. Ideal for swimming, sunbathing, beach bars, and even paragliding for the adventurous.

Discover Hidden Beaches by Boat

Rent a small boat or join a daily cruise to explore beaches only accessible by sea: Pefkoulia, Gaidaros, Megali Petra, or even the breathtaking Porto Katsiki.

Enjoy Local Food & Night Walks

Dine at a traditional taverna in the village, try local specialties like savoro fish or lentils from Eglouvi, then enjoy a stroll through the cobbled pedestrian lane under the stars.
