Guided tour

    • Cruise to Ithaca with multiple swim stops, plus fruit, snacks, water, and juice included for a carefree, sun-soaked day on the sea.

    • Swim at Filiatro and Gidaki—clear, quiet coves where boat access means more space and time in turquoise water.

    • Unhurried moments on deck between swims allow you to take in Ionian views and island coastline while the crew keeps refreshments flowing.

    • Enjoy free time in Vathy to browse small shops and enjoy the harbor vibe before returning to the beaches and open water.

    Getting started

    Arrive at Sami Port and validate your voucher before boarding. The crew shares the day’s route and essentials, then you set off toward Ithaca’s coves.

    What to expect

    Sail from Kefalonia to Ithaca’s coastline, alternating relaxed cruising with swim stops in clear, blue water. Balance time ashore in Vathy with a Lazaretto Island photo stop for classic Ionian views.

    • Filiatro Beach: Sheltered waters and a green-fringed shoreline create easy swimming conditions.

    • Gidaki Beach: Reachable by boat, its transparent waters and pebbled shore feel wonderfully remote.

    • Vathy visit: Wander the harborfront lanes and browse small shops during your free time.

    • Lazaretto Island: a brief photo stop that frames Vathy’s bay and chapel with sweeping sea views.

    • Onboard snacks: fresh fruit, light bites, water, and juice to keep you refreshed between swims.

  • What to bring

    • Swimsuit, towel, and reef-safe sunscreen, comfortable clothing and non-slip footwear, hat and sunglasses for sun protection, camera for water-friendly photo moment, cash or card for personal expenses in Vathy.
