  The green island of Meganisi in Greece Meganisi is a small island in the Ionian archipel. It is situated southeast of its larger neigbour Lefkada or Lefkas. The island is very fertile and lush with vegetation. The island can be reached by ferry from the capital of Lefkas, called Nidri. Also there are several tour boats from Lefkas to the island of Meganisi. Meganisi actually means "the largest" and this is because it is the largest of the small islands here in this area. In between the capital Nidri on Lefkas and the island of Meganisi there are several smaller islands like Sparti, Skorpidi and Skorpios (also known as Onassis island). Meganisi measures 23 km2 and has only 250 inhabitants. The islands capital is called Vathi and this is where the ferries make a stop. The most famous attraction of the island is the Pananikolis Sea Cave. This cave is the second largest sea cave in Greece. Locals claim that the cave succesfully hid a Greek submarine in the Second Worldwar, others say that it must have been a very small submarine if this is true. On Meganisi there are three settlements. Vathi is the largest of the three, Spartochori and Katomeri are the other two. |
