Overview: Vassiliki Lefkada
The village of Vassiliki is fairly small and still retains a lot of its older buildings. The bay is wide and sheltered but is noted for the afternoon winds that blow off the land and, with the comparative shallowness of the sea, make ideal conditions for windsurfing.
The sight of hundreds of windsurfers speeding across the water is most exciting, even if you are not a fan of this sport yourself.
The area around Vassiliki is undulating and makes ideal conditions for cycling and walking.
The traditional style of buildings, so typical in Lefkada Town is very striking in Vassiliki.
During the afternoon, the off-shore breezes create a perfect setting for windsurfing.
