Day 1 Zante
For the first day, as it is the arrival day, we won’t embark from the port, at least not until 17:00,
thus in case you have arrived prior to the embarkation and have some time left, we suggest you roam around Zante’s main port and enjoy some local Greek seafood, by one of the many local restaurants, located on the marina!
If you have plenty of time, be sure to check out the Byzantine Museum, as well, which is located in the heart of Zante’s main town, the national Marine Park and the famous Lagana Bay strip!
In the evening, get to know your fellow travelers, while we have our welcome dinner, on board!
Day 2 Agia Ethimia
On day two, we will be heading to Kefalonia’s Agia Efimia, which is a traditional fishing village centered on a small harbor.
It contains a number of taverns, bars and shops, a traditional wood-fired bakery, as well as tourist accommodations and local residences.
In the evening, stroll through this beautiful, picturesque village and take your pick of Greek eats, from the idyllic tavern-lined promenade, where you can watch the sunset while enjoying your traditional Greek food!
Day 3 Fiskardo
With plenty of secluded bays and scattered sea caves with shallow waters, this part of Kefalonia is every explorer’s dream!
Enjoy your lunch on the vessel, while we sail towards bustling Fiskardo, the most iconic village in Kefalonia.
Visit the pebbled Antisamos beach and sandy Harami beach and admire Greek nature, from up close.
Full of bars and tavernas Fiskardo is the epitome of old-school Greek charm.
Day 4 Lefkada (Nidri)
On day 4, we will head to Lefkada, and Nidri specifically, which is Lefkada’s most famous port.
While in Nidri, 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 Meganissi, Lefkada offers a unique combination, of crystal-clear waters and dark green forest scenery!
Day 5 Meganisi
With white pebble beaches, striking blue seas and its lush green countryside, Meganisi is one of Greece’s best-kept secrets.
On the fifth day, we sail to Meganisi!
You can easily explore this town with a rental bike/car, bicycle or even on foot!
Watch the fisherman go about their work, from one of the seafront cafes, before enjoying some of the best seafood at one of the excellent local taverns, that stock the best catch of the day, the Island has to offer!
Day 6 - Ithaca (with Atokos stop)
On day six, we leave Meganisi behind and we will sail to Ithaca, which many people do not know about, as this beautiful Island is often “overshadowed” by its complex main Island, Kefalonia.
On the way to Ithaca, we might stop to Atokos Island, a private inhabited island, where wild pigs live freely on the island.
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!
Day 7 Zante
Before we head back to Zante, we might visit the beautiful Shipwreck Beach and village on the east coast of the island, enjoying an onboard lunch on the way for some final sweeping sea views!
Day 8 Departure Day
As we have successfully cruised around Zante and its island complex, this is our departure day..
We say goodbye to each other, take some last photos and head back!
Hopefully, though, we will see you again. Until then, we wish you all the best!
We spend the night in the Marina of Zante Old Town, where we enjoy a Captain’s dinner with the group in our final farewell.
