7Lefkada, for sparkling turquoise water

It’s no secret the Ionian islands boast the best beaches in Greece. Opt for Lefkada to swim in blinding-turquoise waters – the most striking found at the Porto Katsiki and Egremni beaches – or milky emerald pools fed by waterfalls, such as the Dimosari ones in Nidri town.

Make sure to catch the sunset from Cape Lefkatas; this is where poet Sappho is said to have leapt to her death, so stand clear of the edge. When compared to cheap hotels in neighbouring Corfu, accommodation in Lefkada is even more affordable.
