Syvros is a traditional picturesque village which is still intact from the tourism development. It has approximately 400 permanent residents and located on the south side of Lefkada. Its name comes from long time ago, since Homeric times, meaning the place where the porks are feed. The village has also a very large old-fashioned square which took its name from the Greek rebel "Alexandros Panagoulis". Close to Syvros is the Vassiliki bay, one of the most popular spots of the island.
