Holidays in Meganissi

An introduction to Meganissi

If you're thinking holidays in Meganissi, start thinking Thomson. Because we've got the summer escapes, last-minute bargains and self-catering holidays to this seductive Greek island that you could be looking for.

Nestled off southern Lefkas, the island is an intoxicating blend of stupendous scenery, enchanting beaches and the timeless Greek lifestyle. Days here are spent pottering around quiet villages, sunning and swimming in secluded coves, wandering through olive groves and feasting on mezes, all accompanied by a glorious slideshow of lush hills and glittering seas.

The main destination for holidays in Meganissi is Vathi, a delightful harbour village in a sheltered bay. Apart from socialising at the waterside tavernas and the hubbub that greets the ferries from Lefkas, life here is completely unrushed. And if you reckon things can't get any quieter, tiny nearby Spartohori, with its alleyways, shops and tavernas, and sleepy Katomeri, Meganissi's capital, will prove you wrong.

But Meganissi holidays are also about the great outdoors. Apart from indulging in the beaches at Ai Yiannis, Ambelaki and Fanari, the island has countless other coves to enjoy. And for extra variety, hire a boat to explore its sparkling sea caves, take off on day trips to Kefalonia or Lefkas, or just go with the flow – sip an ouzo, breathe in the serenity and views and relax.
