Lakka Lighthouse
Perched on the dramatic northwestern coast of Paxos, Lakka Lighthouse is one of the island's most iconic landmarks and one of the best viewpoints in the Ionian Islands. Originally built by the British in 1825, it has guided ships through the waters between Paxos and Corfu for almost two centuries.
The original lighthouse was destroyed in 1913, when a powerful landslide caused the ground beneath it to collapse into a deep ravine. Remarkably, the lighthouse keepers and their families escaped unharmed. A new lighthouse was built nearby at Kouera and entered service in 1919, where it continues to operate today.
The lighthouse is located just 1 km from the picturesque village of Lakka and around 10 km from Gaios. It is easily reached via a well-maintained unpaved road suitable for most vehicles, making it one of the most accessible historic lighthouses on Paxos.
Surrounded by olive groves and spectacular sea cliffs, the area is ideal for a leisurely walk and photography. Nearby attractions include the stunning Erimitis Cliffs and the impressive Ypapanti Sea Cave, which can be visited by boat from Lakka.
For many visitors, sunset is the highlight of a trip to Lakka Lighthouse. As the sun disappears into the Ionian Sea, the coastline is bathed in golden light, creating one of the most breathtaking sunset views on Paxos. Whether you're exploring the island's history, enjoying a scenic walk, or searching for the perfect viewpoint, Lakka Lighthouse is a place you won't want to miss.
