Enjoy the beaches for free<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beaches in Greece are public, so you never pay to swim. At organised beaches you will usually find sunbeds and umbrellas that come with a charge or a minimum spend at the beach bar, but there is almost always free space where you can lay down your own towel.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bring a beach umbrella and a cool bag from home, or pick up an inexpensive umbrella locally; it quickly pays for itself.<\/li><li>Carry plenty of water and snacks, especially to west-coast beaches where facilities can be limited.<\/li><li>Pack water shoes for pebbly beaches; they make swimming far more comfortable.<\/li><li>Arrive early in summer to secure a shady spot and easier parking.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Free and low-cost things to do<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the beaches, Lefkada is full of experiences that cost little or nothing:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Cape Lefkatas:<\/strong> the wild southern tip of the island, crowned by a white lighthouse above sheer cliffs. It is one of the most dramatic sunset spots in the Ionian.<\/li><li><strong>Dimosari Waterfalls:<\/strong> a short walk through shady greenery near Nidri leads to a natural pool, refreshing on a hot day. Visit in early summer for the best water flow.<\/li><li><strong>Faneromeni Monastery:<\/strong> on the hill above Lefkada Town, with peaceful grounds and fine views over the town and lagoon.<\/li><li><strong>Lefkada Town:<\/strong> wander the narrow streets, colourful houses and the waterfront, and stop for a coffee in the main square.<\/li><li><strong>Sunsets on the west coast:<\/strong> Kathisma, Agios Nikitas and Porto Katsiki all face the evening sun.<\/li><li><strong>Low-cost culture:<\/strong> the Archaeological Museum in Lefkada Town and the medieval Castle of Agia Mavra at the entrance to the island are well worth a visit for history lovers.<\/li><li><strong>Local festivals:<\/strong> in summer, many villages hold traditional celebrations with music and dancing, and the Lefkas International Folklore Festival takes place in August.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Eat like a local<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the best meals on Lefkada are also some of the most affordable. Look for simple family-run tavernas, souvlaki and gyros spots, and places slightly back from the busiest seafronts, where prices are often more reasonable.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Order a few dishes to share, Greek style, rather than one main course each.<\/li><li>Try the house wine, often served by the carafe, instead of bottled wine.<\/li><li>Ask what is fresh today; local, seasonal dishes are usually the best value and the tastiest.<\/li><li>Fresh fish is often priced by the kilo, so ask about the weight and price before ordering.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8.
