Meganissi or Meganisi is a small island in the Ionian Sea, between Lefkada and the west coast of mainland Greece.
Meganissi has been populated since ancient times and there are three villages on the island: Vathy, built around the island's harbour, Katomeri with its traditional houses and Katochori roughly 4 km south of Katomeri. The total population of the island is 1,092 inhabitants as per the census of 2001.
It was in a cave at Meganissi that the Greek submarine Papanikolis took refuge during the German occupation.
