Órmos Desími

✨ Hidden gem

Drop anchor just north of Desími Bay, where the seabed is carpeted in Posidonia oceanica meadows — which means you'll want to set your hook carefully and make sure you're not dragging on the protected seagrass. The setting is quietly beautiful, tucked into this corner of Lefkada's southeastern coast with calm, sheltered water and little in the way of crowds. It's a straightforward overnight stop with good holding once you find a sandy patch.
