Map of Lefkada
Quick answer
Lefkada Town is at the northern tip, joined to the mainland by a causeway and floating bridge, so you can drive there. The nearest airport is Preveza (Aktion), about 20 km north. The famous west-coast beaches, Porto Katsiki and Egremni, face open sea; Nydri on the calm east coast is the base for boat trips.
