Ionian Islands of Greece

Lefkada and Kefalonia are two of the seven main islands of Greece in the Ionian Sea, west of the mainland.  Lefkada is technically no longer an island, as it's now connected to the mainland via a causeway.  Kefalonia, the better-known of the two, lies to its southwest.  In this outstanding drone video, you'll get an aerial view of some beautiful spots on the two islands, both of which bear the marks of centuries of Venetian rule. Kefalonia's Myrtos beach and Melissani Lake; and Lefkada's Cape Doukato, Kathisma, and Porto Katsiki.

Check out this marvelous drone tour of the Greek island of Zakynthos, compliments of Paschalis Doumanis.  Zakynthos is the southernmost and third-largest of the seven main islands which lie off the Greek mainland in the Ionian Sea.  It's best known for the beach which opens the video: Navagio Beach, on a bay of the northwestern part of the island, which has taken on the name Shipwreck Beach since the MV Panagiotis ran aground here in 1980.    The video will also let you explore other parts of Zakynthos, one of Greece's top destinations.

Mrgilchen created this beautiful drone video of Corfu, the northernmost and perhaps best-known of the seven main islands which lie off the western coast of Greece in the Ionian Sea.  Once known as Kerkyra, Corfu is repeatedly referenced in some of the most important stories of Greek mythology, and it later played a key role in the Peloponnesian War.  In early modern times, the island was regarded as a bulwark against Ottoman expansionism and became one of the most heavily fortified places in Europe.

Contributor 11 Shots Media created this brilliant 60 second aerial tour of three of Greece's islands in the Ionian Sea to the west of the mainland.  The islands shown in are Lefkada, Ithaki, and Kevalonia.  These are the central islands of the group, which also includes Corfu, Paxi, Zakynthos, and Kythira.  As you'ss see in this video, these islands combine aspects of Greece's Aegean islands to the east with those of Italy to the west; in large measure, this reflects the period during which the Ionian Islands were under Venetian control.  

Kythira: Southernmost Ionian

Kythira (From Above)

fakefaketv...

The Greek island of Kythira is considered to be part of the Ionian Islands group, although it sits a good ways south of the other six main islands.  It's located south of the Peloponnese Peninsula, essentially between the Ionian and Aegean Seas.  In ancient times, the island played a pivotal role in the decades-long struggle between Sparta and Athens which is famously known as the Peloponnesian Wars.  If you watch this drone video of Kythira from fakefakettv, you will agree this was a prize worth fighting for!

Check out this drone video of the quaint village of Lakka on the Greek island of Paxos, compliments of Drone AéroView.  It lies on the north side of the island (which is also sometimes called Paxi), the smallest of the seven Ionian Islands west of the mainland.  The stunning little port town sits on a nearly circular-shaped bay, on which sit Kanoni and Harami Beaches.  Lakka is a popular spot for sailing, power boating, wind surfing, snorkeling, and other sundry aquatic recreations.  

Zythera: Southernmost Ionian Island

The Greek island of Zythera (Kythira) is something of an oddity.  It's considered part of the Ionian Islands group but lies far to the south of the other six main Iionian Island, near the southern tip of the Peloponnese Peninsula.  Zythera was a key battleground during the Peloponnesian War of the 5th century BC, and (like the other Ionian Islands) was part of the Venetian Empire for most of the Middle Ages.  In this drone video, you'll get an aerial view of the town of Agia Pelagia on the northern side of the island.  

Marathonisi: Turtle Island

Contributor and pilot Harispomonis brings us this beautiful 4k drone video of Marathonisi, tiny islet in the Ionian Sea.  It sits off the coast of Zakynthos, one of the seven main islands which makes up this territory of Greece.  Marathonisi is also known as "Turtle Island", in reference to its role as a nesting place for a certain species of loggerhead turtle.  Zakynthos is one of the southern Ionian islands, and it's situated just west of the Peloponnese Peninsula on the southern part of the Greek mainland.

Kalamos is one of the lesser known Greek islands in the Ionian Sea, west of the Greek mainland.  For administration purposes, it's now considered part of the island of Lefkada, which lies to its northwest.  Covering only about 25 square km (around 10 square mi.) its wintertime population is about 500.  Most of its population is situated in and around the harbor town of Kalamos, on the eastern side of the island.  Seen here in this drone video by Colinos, the town's population swells considerably during the summer months.

While the Greek island of Corfu is well known for Venetian architecture and imposing fortresses of its coastal settlments, its interior is much less explored.  In this drone video by AirVuz contributor Laurent Paris, you'll see the island's mountainous interior.  Corfu's main mountain range runs across the northern part of the island, which faintly resembles a tadpole and is widest at its northern "head".  The main mountain of this range is Pantokrator, which has a summit elevation of just under 3k ft. above sea level (around 900 m).  

Corfu's Main City

Dronakias...

Corfu is the second largest (and northernmost) of the Greek Ionian Islands and its most well known.  The island's main city (also called Corfu) has played an important role throughout ancient and modern Greek history, and it is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site.  Corfu was a shooting location in the 13th James Bond movie For Your Eyes Only (1981) starring Roger Moore, at times standing in for Albania.  In this video, Dronakias gives us a bird's eye view of this cultural gem in the Ionian Sea.

CORFU ISLAND GREECE

Visitors to the Greek Ionian Island of Corfu often remark on the similarities to parts of Italy, notably Venice.  There is a good historical reason for that; for over four centuries, strategically situated Corfu was the jewel in the crown of the Venetian Empire.  The fortress-island withstood two epic sieges by the Ottoman Empire in 1537 and 1716, in both cases rallying large pan-European interest in keeping the island out of Muslim hands.  Check out historic Corfu from above in this drone video by gkoutanoudisg.

The Greek island of Corfu in the Ionian Sea was one of the jewels of the Venetian Empire from the late Middle Ages through the time of Napoleon.  During this time, the island came under siege from the Ottoman Empire on multiple occasions, and Corfu was seen as a bulwark of Christianity in its bitter fight for mastery of the Mediterranean Sea against the forces of Islam.  In this drone video, you will get a bird's eye view of the area around the so-called "Old Fortress" of Corfu, on the eastern side of the island.
