At 250,000 euros per week, chartering in Lefkada accesses the top tier of Ionian charter inventory, with yachts typically measuring 60 to 75 metres and a crew of 14 to 18 managing the operation with total professionalism. Lefkada’s central Ionian position between Paxos to the north and Kefalonia to the south, combined with the outstanding anchorages on its own coastline at Porto Katsiki and Meganisi, means a week here can be as varied or as unhurried as the charter party chooses.
The advance provisioning allowance at 250,000 euros per week runs to approximately 75,000 euros, covering fuel for Ionian passages, premium provisioning, marina fees in Nydri and Lefkada Town, and all agreed extras. Total charter spend in peak season typically reaches 318,000 to 340,000 euros for seven nights. Early booking is important: yachts at this scale in the Ionian are committed well in advance for July and August.
From Lefkada, the classic Ionian week at this rate covers Paxos and Antipaxos to the north, Kefalonia’s Fiskardo and Ithaca’s Vathy to the south, and Porto Katsiki’s dramatic cliff beach for the week’s defining swim stop. Meganisi’s enclosed bays and Sivota on the Greek mainland provide the most secluded nights. For guests with more time, Corfu to the north and the Albanian Riviera beyond extend the range considerably.
The Ionian is settled from May to October, and a 250,000 euro week in early June or late September represents outstanding value against the July and August peak.
