It would be a pity to leave the island of Kefalonia without visiting our famous Ithaca. It is separated from Kefalonia by a channel 3-4 kilometers wide.
As we all know from Homer, this is the island of the crafty Ulysses. Its name originated from Ithacos, son of Poseidon, god of the sea.
You can reach the island from the ports of Sami, Agia Efimia or Fiscardo. As you enter the port at the capital of the island Vathi, you are greeted by the pretty island of Lazareto with the little church of the saviour on it.
Vathi is a quiet little seaside town that lacks nothing. It can offer many things to visitors who will be impressed by its taverns, tourist shops, bars, hotels etc.
Beautiful little harbours await you to swim in their serene waters. Villages you can visit are Perahori, Pisa Aetos, Stavros, Frikes and especially Kioni worth looking at.
