This experience, in a nutshell
Kefalonia and Ithaca are islands where it is easy to get lost along the uninterrupted series of fascinating bays.
Our journey will begin in the lively gulf of Argostoli where it is not uncommon to meet beautiful turtles.
Driving along the west coast of the island, we'll admire the wild bays protected by delightful white cliffs. The delightful village of Assos will be our first stopover at the end of a journey during which we will admire jagged coasts and hills covered with cypress and pine forests.
Assos is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque villages on the island: a small amphitheater of rock and pine trees encloses a handful of cream and ochre houses overlooking the sea with lively and cozy taverns. The bay is protected by a mighty fortress that can be visited with a short walk in the woods that surround it. Excellent for a night at anchor are the bays that precede the one that hosts the town.
The next stops will be the bay of Emblissi and that of Fiskardo, the most exclusive of the resorts of Kefalonia, lying in a beautiful gulf on the east coast of the island, the one overlooking Ithaca. Fiskardo, retains an Italian-inspired charm.
A beautiful sail in the channel between Kefalonia and Ithaca will take us to the Gulf of Sami from which we will set off to discover Ithaca, the mythical homeland of Ulysses or Odysseus, its king, one of the Achaean heroes protagonists of the Iliad and the Odyssey. We will land in Vathi, the commercial heart of Ithaca, whose true charm comes from the nearby, beautiful beaches of Louza, with the picturesque seaside chapel of Agios Andreas and the magnificent stretch of white sand of Gidaki.
After leaving the moorings, we will go up the Ionian Sea to the island of Atokos , small but full of beaches and caves, and from there to the islands of Lefkada and Meganisi , which face each other in a race between those who have the most beautiful beaches and gulfs. In one of which we will moor for the night. The next day we will arrive in sight of Skorpios, once home to the billionaire Onassis. A beautiful sail will take us to the narrow passage between Lefkada and the mainland. Here we will cross a spectacular swing bridge. After a few miles of navigation here is the beautiful bay of Preveza. Our last destination.
