Beach under the sheer white cliff
Porto Katsiki is a beach which lies under the sheer white cliff. Almost most of us love sunbathing on sandbank beaches.. Even from far away you can admire the white gravel beach. Walking and lying down on tiny stones are much more comfortable than lying on very fine sand. The most beautiful beaches we can find on the west coast of Lefkas. If you discover the beach from the north to the south you will found out that every second beach is more beautiful and more spectacular. The queen of all beaches in Lefkas in any case is the beach of Porto Katsiki under the slope of white cliff.
