Preveza is one of the fifty-one prefectures of Greece. It is within the Epirus periphery. Its capital is a city by the same name. It is one of the prefectures that have no provinces. The city and the district has been planning a bridge which will connect traffic between Preveza and Thesprotia and Lefkada and western Aetolia in Aetoloacarnania because the ferry route is short. Preveza lies near the western part of the Ambracian Gulf .

The district (prefecture) contains valleys, hills to its north and Nicopolis. The mountains of Xerovouno (Greek for the dry mountain) is in the extreme northeast.
