Gyra Beach, Lefkada

 

Location

Lefkada (near the town)
As you go over the draw beach you have an option to turn left towards the town of Lefkada, and if you turn right the road takes you to Gyra beach


Beach Name

Gyra


My Rating Overall


3=good beach, would choose it for swimming among other beaches if we were in the area. If we were visiting the area we would consider this beach a good place to swim.


Beach

S=sand (sandy beach)


Sea Floor

S=sand (sandy beach)


Water

3= Very nice and clean sea. We would go swimming there again if we were in the area

(These are just my own unscientific observation of the water feel and appearance)
My family and I enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool instead of warm. We don' like visible floating particles of any kind or algae settled on the beach.


Clothing

Topless sunbathing is not common


Access

Good=paved road all the way to the beach, parking near the beach


Amenities

R=restaurant (on the beach)
B=
bar (on the beach)
C=
cantina (on the beach)
H=hotel on the beach


RV / Camper Accessibility

P= RV plenty Room for Parking

Many RV's park towards the south end of the beach, and especially around the area called Mylos Beach. This is a favorite wind surfing spot as well.


Snorkeling

N=does not look promising, I did not dive


Notes

The beach near the town of Lefkada is vast. There are areas where bathers concentrate, usually around restaurants or bars, and there are large stretches that are completely vacant. Most people seem to concentrate at the two ends: near the castle at the north, and around the deserted windmills (Milos beach) at the south end.
