Description

Why not take the opportunity and join us as we sail across to visit our neighboring island of Ithaca, famous for its unspoiled traditional villages, charming, picturesque fishing ports, and breathtaking natural beauty. At the highest point of the island sits Kathara Monastery, which provides the perfect setting for you to take incredible photographs of the whole island, before we head down to the idyllic town of Stavros; a typical village where you can truly appreciate the local charm of this amazing island, where it appears that time stood still. Some of the sights in Stavros are the beautiful church of Sotiras which stands in the central square of the village and the archaeological museum. Lunch will be enjoyed in the harbor side town Κioni. Here you will be met with a wonderful choice of traditional taverns where you can have lunch next to the sea. Sailing across with a traditional kaiki we will reach the Beach Gidaki, which consists of white shinny pebbles. It is a paradise with its placid and crystal-clear waters coupled with the splendid backdrop. Together we will visit the capital of the island Vathy, where you can join the locals to take coffee at the main square, explore the quaint narrow streets or visit the local museum. As the home of the Greek King, Odysseus, Ithaca is stepped in Greek mythology ready for you to discover! Seeing the place gives you a better understanding of what you have read about it, it is clear why Ithaca, a rough and rugged land surrounded by magic and colorful coves, gave birth to the brilliant, resourceful, ingenious Odysseus.
