Must See
Papanikolis Cave is truly one of the most impressive natural wonders of the Mediterranean! Its sheer size, enchanting stalactites, secluded beach, and crystal-clear waters create a dreamlike setting—a true gem of the Ionian Sea.
Swimming there isn’t just a refreshing dip; it’s a deep connection with the natural beauty and maritime heritage of Greece. If you haven’t visited it yet, it definitely deserves a top spot on your list of must-see destinations!
Without a doubt, places like this remind us why exploring nature is so thrilling and deeply rewarding.
The Holy Temple of Saint John the Baptist, once part of a historic monastery, is nestled on a peaceful pebble beach on the island’s western coast.
Though it no longer boasts remarkable frescoes or architectural splendor, it holds centuries of spiritual and historical significance, with records dating back to 1477. A quiet sanctuary, it offers a unique sense of serenity and reverence to all who visit.

Sundown @Stefani
We take great pride in our stunning sunsets — and there is no better place to witness their beauty than from Stefani in Spartochori.
Perched like a natural balcony above the Ionian Sea, Stefani offers sweeping panoramic views that take your breath away. As the sun gently dips behind the mountains of Lefkada, the sky transforms into a canvas of orange, pink, and golden hues — a moment of pure magic that captivates everyone who sees it.
Stefani is one of our most beloved photo spots — perfect for capturing that unforgettable shot or simply soaking in the peaceful majesty of nature.
Sunken Airplane
The plane still lies in shallow water near the edge of the Vathy harbour and can be easily seen in most conditions. The remains belong to a light aircraft that crashed close to Maganisi around 1971.
It's said that there were 6 Dutchmen on the plane (paparazzis), and they were flying over the island of Scorpio, taking pictures of the island and of the Greek Tycoon Aristotle Onassis and Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Mechanical failure forced them to ditch the small aircraft. The single-engine sank after a while.
However, all the passengers got out safely while local fishing boats came to their aid. A local fisherman towed it into the port of Vathi two years later.
Our island is home to some beautiful and secluded beaches — hidden treasures that define serenity.
Tucked away in quiet coves and accessible only by boat, these untouched stretches of coastline offer a truly exclusive escape. Here, you’ll find a zen-like atmosphere, perfect for relaxing, reconnecting with nature, or simply enjoying the sound of gentle waves.
Swim in emerald and turquoise waters, explore by boat, or bask in the sun on soft pebbles with nothing but sea and sky around you.
A day spent on one of Meganisi’s hidden beaches is more than just a getaway — it’s an unforgettable moment of pure tranquility that will stay in your heart forever.
Scuba or Snorkelling
You simply can't visit Meganisi without discovering its enchanting underwater world!
Beyond the impressive reefs, you’ll be amazed by the variety of marine life, a colorful mosaic that comes alive beneath the surface. And the best part? The visibility is outstanding, averaging over 30 meters!
Whether you’re passionate about diving or simply enjoy snorkeling, Meganisi promises an experience you won’t want to miss. Explore, be mesmerized, and enjoy a world that few are lucky enough to witness.

Fish Feeding Experience
Start your morning early, around 8–9 AM, and head to beautiful Fanari Beach — with a few slices of bread in hand.
Wade gently into the clear water until you're about waist-deep, then begin tossing small pieces of bread, one at a time. Within minutes, you’ll be surrounded by dozens — even hundreds — of tiny fish swirling around you in a graceful, shimmering dance.
It’s a simple yet magical experience, perfect for families with young children. It’s also a delightful way for kids to connect with the marine world in a safe, fun, and unforgettable setting.
