The Ionian Islands of Greece are home to some of the most stunning beaches in the Mediterranean with crystal-clear waters, dramatic cliffs, and unspoiled natural beauty. But some of the most breathtaking spots remain untouched by mass tourism, accessible only by catamaran. If you’re planning a luxury yacht charter in the Ionian Sea, make sure to include these five secluded beaches in your itinerary.

1. Porto Katsiki, Lefkada

Arguably one of Greece’s most iconic beaches, Porto Katsiki is nestled beneath steep white cliffs and offers electric-blue waters. While it’s accessible by land, arriving by yacht allows you to avoid the crowds and experience this natural wonder in complete serenity.

Why visit by yacht: Drop anchor offshore and swim to the beach or simply enjoy the panoramic views from your private deck.

2. Egremni beach, Lefkada

Egremni was once accessible by a long staircase, but after an earthquake in 2015, the land access was severely damaged, making boat the only real option. What awaits is an endless stretch of white sand and turquoise water that feels like a slice of the Caribbean.

Perfect for: Peaceful sunbathing, snorkeling, and drone-worthy photography.

3. Voutoumi beach, Antipaxos

Antipaxos is a small island south of Paxos, known for its wine and its dreamy beaches. Voutoumi is the jewel of the island, with shallow blue waters and white-pebble shores.

 Insider tip: Arrive early in the morning to enjoy it before the day-trippers arrive.

4. Myrtos beach, Kefalonia (from the sea side)

Although technically reachable by car, the full beauty of Myrtos is best appreciated from the sea. The view of the towering cliffs and the color of the water is something no photo can do justice to.

 Best time to go: Late afternoon for magical golden hour light and calmer winds.

5. Gidaki beach, Ithaca

Located on the east coast of Ithaca, Gidaki is a pristine beach that’s difficult to reach by foot. By boat, however, it’s just a scenic cruise away and offers a tranquil, turquoise escape with minimal crowds.

 Ideal for: Couples, nature lovers, and anyone craving a unique blend of seclusion and luxury.
