Lakka, Greece


Lakka is a village situated on Paxi, a Greek Island in the Ionian Sea approximately nine miles south of Corfu.

Geography

Lakka is the second largest village in size on the northern end of Paxos and is flanked by silver green olive groves and cypress trees. The picturesque fishing village is located on a natural, almost circular harbor created by two headlands sheltering the bay from the open sea.

Tourism

Lakka is a popular tourist destination for yachting, windsurfing, snorkeling and swimming. The two main beaches within the Lakka bay, white pebbled Kanoni and sandy Harami lead to a very clear turquoise sea. Other nearby beaches can be found on the east coast of the island, just outside the Lakka bay, but in most cases can only be reached on foot or by boat.
