Introduction:
Care is needed when sailing by Cape Lefkimmi because shallows
(one meter depth) extend out a considerable distance north and slightly
northeast of the cape. |

GPS: Lat: 39° 25' 24N, Long: 20° 4' 8E Approach: Lefkimmi harbour is about 3 miles south of Cape Lefkimmi. By day when sailing past one can see the boulders of the breakwater extending about 250 meters from the shore; by night care is needed so as to distinguish the two beacons at the entrance from the lights of the coast. Mooring: Within the harbour, depths of four meters and up. Good protection from most weather. In southerlies and northeasterlies, a swell gets in the harbour. Further information:
The
harbour is new and thus provides no facilities. A small building is
planned for the convenience of passengers using the ferry-boat from
there to Igoumenitsa. However if one is heading north to Corfu it
is sometimes helpful to wait in the harbour until the Maistros dies
down in the evening so as to avoid the trouble of beating against
it.
