Day 3: Ithaca and the Port of Vathi
On day 3, we will head to Ithaca, and Vathi specifically, which is Ithaca’s most famous port.
While in Vathi, you will have the chance to explore its famous local markets, which are packed with Greek products/foods, souvenirs and other “goodies”!
Laying in between Kefalonia, and Lefkada, Ithaca offers a unique combination, of crystal-clear waters and dark green forest scenery!

Day 4: Meganisi 'Big Island'
On day four, we leave Ithaca behind and we will sail to Meganisi, which many people do not know about, as this beautiful Island is often “overshadowed” by its complex main Island, Lefkada.
That said, we will enjoy our lunch onboard, as usual and we will look specifically for coastal relaxation at some of its many secluded bay coves, to anchor there and enjoy the beautiful Greek night sky!
