Arrive via the mainland link
Lefkada is connected to mainland Greece by a floating bridge and causeway at Lefkada Town. You can drive onto the island, or fly into Aktion National Airport (PVK) near Preveza and continue by transfer, hire car or bus.

| Option | When it helps | Arrange before you arrive |
|---|---|---|
| Private transfer or taxi | A direct journey from Aktion Airport to a named hotel, especially with luggage or a late flight. | Flight number, hotel address, total fare, child seats and delay policy. |
| Hire car | West-coast beaches, Porto Katsiki day trips or a stay away from bus routes. | Collection desk, parking at the property, insurance excess and mountain-road confidence. |
| Bus | Town or resort stays that sit on KTEL routes. | Current timetable, luggage space and the walk from the stop to your hotel. |
Getting around once you are here
East-coast resorts are closer together than the west-coast beaches. A car shortens days to Porto Katsiki and Egremni; Nidri works well without one if boat trips and local beaches are enough.
