Difficulties That You Face When Decide to Rent a Boat on Lefkas

Lefkas has one specific feature, which makes this island stunning and remarkable but a little dangerous at the same time. It is the availability of the white rocks, which stretch along the west side of Lefkas. Due to these cliffs, the view from the sea is both spectacular and frightening. The Ionian Sea is one of the calmest seas in the world, but it is still better not to get closer to the western side of the island, especially if your choice is a bareboat charter on Lefkas. When weather conditions are adverse, it is necessary not to sail on the west side.
