Lefkos
Λευκός
A resort village on the west coast, with a string of crescent-shaped white-sand bays, calm water and a good spot for watching the sunset.
Lefkos lies on the island's west coast and is made up of several adjoining crescent-shaped sandy bays, with fine sand and clear, emerald water. It sits at the foot of the mountain range that holds Karpathos's highest peak, Kali Limni, and it is quieter than the capital. The village has many family-run guesthouses and waterside restaurants, and in the evenings visitors can watch the sun set over the Aegean. Roman-era rock-cut tombs nearby are worth a detour. It is about 40 minutes' drive from Pigadia.
