Access to Meganisi is effortless as Lefkada is the only island you can come by car. A floating bridge connects it with Etoloakarnania. The floating bridge makes a complete rotation every hour from 8:00 to 22:00, while from 23:00 to 07.00, the bridge rotates when a boat needs to pass. The Rio-Antirio bridge, the Aktio underwater tunnel, Egnatia Odos and Ionia Odos have drastically reduced the distance from all areas of Greece and have made access to Meganisi very easy and the trip fast and safe.
