How to Day Trip to Ithaca from Kefalonia

If you asked me what my favourite part of my trip to Kefalonia was, I’d probably say it was visiting Ithaca (sorry Kefalonia!).

The siren call of Ithaca is strong if you’re staying on the northeast coast of Kefalonia – it seems tantalisingly close and larger than it looks on the map. It’s green and dripping with go-slow vibes, with pretty villages tucked away in its strange humpy shape – a mountainous figure-of-eight with a narrow isthmus at its centre. If you can live without sandy beaches then Ithaca is paradise. It’s famously the home of Odysseus and is the most unspoiled of the Ionian islands, and although there’s a strong yachty presence it’s in a very laid-back way.

I tend to find that the most enjoyable Greek islands are at least 1 ferry ride away from any airport. I’m also fond of sailing and of lush pine-clad islands. So it’s really no surprise I loved Ithaca and would return in a heartbeat.

If you want to nip over from Kefalonia to Ithaca for a day trip then you have several options:

• DIY – take the early ferry over from Sami, 45 mins with Ionion Pelagos . Prices from €4 for a foot passenger and €17 for a car – check the website for tariffs and schedules.  The problem is that there is currently no public transport from the arrival port of Piso Aetos to the nearest town of interest which is Vathy, so this is best for those who have a car or scooter (check first – not all hire companies allow this). Alternatively, you can arrange a taxi in advance – just don’t count on there being any at the port to meet the ferry.
• Bus tour – there are agencies in most resorts that offer excursions from around Kefalonia by bus and ferry, these usually include a guide. I recommend Avgerinos Travel if you’re on the north of the island.
• Boat trip – available from resorts on the north coast – try Captain Vangelis from Skala and Poros, Romantika Cruises from Agia Efimia. Book through local agencies for transfers from elsewhere.
• Boat hire –  boat rentals are available in Fiskardo when the sea conditions are good, this more suitable for reaching Stavros and Polis Beach on the east coast. You can also negotiate day-long charters and private transfers.

Be aware that the bus and boat tours don’t run every day.

I chose the boat trip because a swimming stop sounded more appealing than sitting on a bus. As I was staying in Aghia Efimia on Kefalonia, I booked the Romatika Cruise trip through Avgerino Travel although you can book direct with the boat at the harbour when the stand is manned.

There are 3 main towns to visit on Ithaca – the capital Vathy, Frikes, and the unbelievably pretty Kioni. My boat trip visited Vathy and Kioni only (by the time we got to Kioni I was tempted to jump ship and maroon myself on this beautiful island). 

The boat took an anti-clockwise trip around the island, sailing first past the green and empty south-east coast. First stop of the day was swimming at Gidaki beach. This is a crazy beautiful spot, with electric turquoise waters and a blinding white pebble beach. I don’t think my photos do it justice – there is something Robinson-Crusoe-esque about the place, and it was perfect for the last swim of my trip. 

You can reach Gidaki by foot from Vathy but from what I could see the trail looked unappealingly steep – unsurprisingly it’s more common to arrive by boat (or kayak). There is a beach bar shack on Gidaki which rents umbrellas and sunloungers and hosts parties on the long hot summer nights, although it was closed for the season when we were there.

Next stop: Vathy. The capital is just around the corner from Gidaki so this was a short sail – and approaching Vathy you can see just why Ithaca is so popular with the yachting fraternity. It’s located in an incredible natural harbour that is almost hidden from view until the last moment. The bay was full of yachts flocking to Vathy for lunch.

Vathy is a pretty town which encases the bay and is overlooked by green mountains. The streets are lined with picturesque Neoclassical mansions – Ithaca became a wealthy island thanks to its seafaring prowess – but today it has more of a working town feel. If you find places like Fiskardo and Assos on Kefalonia far too touristy, then Vathy is the antidote you need. There are a few tourist streets of souvenir shops and souvlaki but elsewhere local life goes on as normal. It has a low-key feel if a bit desolate in places (after the high summer months at least).

Many of Vathy’s old buildings were devastated by the earthquake in 1953 (Kioni escaped the worst) but as it was a richer town it recovered better than similar areas of Kefalonia and Zakynthos. A preservation order has since been introduced – there’s a pleasant lack of concrete block hotels on Ithaca. And there’s a distinctly Italian vibe – the island was ruled by the Venetians from the 1500s to the 1700s and is popular today with Italian tourists.

We didn’t eat lunch at Vathy – just a gelato stop for me – saving ourself for the restaurants at the final stop of Kioni, which is a short sail up on the northeast coast of Ithaca. Another spectacular approach brings you to this picture-perfect village surrounded by dense pines. There’s a small row of excellent tavernas on the waterfront offering seafood and local specialities. We weren’t the only boat docking with lunch in mind – I recommend getting a table quickly because it does become a bit of a mad rush. 

It’s a genteel place with a few bakeries and jewellery shops and a tiny pebble beach, although I did spy a few bars catering towards the visiting yachts.  Kioni has a similar yachty vibe to nearby Fiskardo on Kefalonia but is much much more relaxed and less blingy.

FINAL THOUGHTS

In hindsight, whilst I loved swimming at Gidaki beach, if I had to do over again I would choose the bus tour. Whilst the boat is comfortable it felt pretty crowded and the sail back from Kioni is long and hot (and this was in September). I took another bus tour with Avgerinos and rate them very highly – with lovely and informative tour guides and smallish buses.

I’m very glad I went though – it was one of my favourite days on my Ionian trip and left me hankering to return. Ithaca is my kind of place. Next time I plan to bring friends and rent a boat to explore the island’s many empty beaches.

The NBA legend's Instagram dispatches also feature his traveling companions: LaTanya and Samuel L. Jackson, and Cedric the Entertainer and Lorna Wells

Earvin " Magic" Johnson 's summer yacht adventure is sailing on!

Magic, 64, and his wife Earlitha "Cookie" Johnson , 65, have shared several updates on their annual Mediterranean vacation via Instagram, many of which feature their friends and traveling companions LaTanya and Samuel L. Jackson ; John and Vicki Palmer; and Cedric the Entertainer and Lorna Wells.

On Saturday, July 6, the NBA legend shared an Instagram post of himself posing in front of a glorious sunset from the boat while in Spain. "Look at the amazing sunrise I got to enjoy at 6 am this morning before my workout in Spain," he wrote in the caption. 

Magic wore casual attire in the photo, which showed him leaning against a couch on the yacht's deck. He opted for a gray and blue Los Angeles Baseball T-shirt with matching blue pants. 

That same day, he shared a collaborative post with his wife of over 30 years that showcased the group’s visit to the Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma in Mallorca, Spain. 

“Today, we had an amazing day exploring in Palma de Mallorca, Spain with our friends! We visited one of the largest Mediterranean Gothic churches in Spain that took over 400 years to build," the Believing in Magic author wrote in the caption.

Cookie went on to praise the church for its "beautiful" stained-glass windows. "I definitely recommend a visit if you’re in Spain, we were all in awe," Cookie added. 

The carousel showed Magic and Cookie embracing one another while sitting outside, a group snap inside of the cathedral, and videos and photos of the landmark's interior as they explored.

In a post from Friday, July 5, the athlete gave insight into how he spent the Fourth of July holiday while traveling. “A great day celebrating the Fourth of July with our friends overseas," he wrote in a caption.

In the first photo of the post, the Johnsons were smiling as they posed with the Palmers and Jacksons, all of whom were dressed for the holiday. The inside of the boat was adorned with red, white and blue balloons, along with other themed decor.

The crew chimed in on the celebration as Magic posted a video of them dancing with American flags as the friend group cheered along. The festivities also included a donut wall with themed desserts. 

That same day, Magic shared a video of himself having a "magical start" to his morning by "cutting loose" on a jet ski. At the start of the clip, he raises his hand to wave at the camera.

The group kicked off their summer vacation on July 1 with the basketball player announcing their trip via an Instagram post with the caption: "We are officially on vacation!! 😁 Hanging out with our great friends John and Vicki Palmer and Sam and LaTanya Jackson at Boca Grande in Barcelona, Spain! The food was *chef’s kiss*."

The following day, Magic shared videos to his Instagram Stories of their views of the Spanish island of Ibiza from the yacht.

While visiting the Mediterranean destination, the group dressed up to dine at the "farm-to-table" Can Palau De Dalt restaurant, located in the Casa Maca Hotel.

In the same post, Magic shared a photo of the six of them standing on a staircase on the boat with a view of its grand entrance.

Last year, the Johnsons had their luxurious six-week vacation on the same yacht – identified as the Phoenix 2 superyacht . They began their journey in Antibes, France before making their way around the Mediterranean including stops in Portofino, Capriccioli, Capri, Positano, Nerano and Sicily in Italy ; the Corinth Canal, Mykonos, Oia, Kefalonia, Kalami and Santorini in Greece ; Montenegro; and Dubrovnik, Croatia.

The luxury yacht has offered charter prices that start at €1,200,000 per week, or roughly $1,299,770, per week, according to its website .

Included in the price of the seven-cabin superyacht, which can accommodate up to 12 guests, is a crew of 29 people. The primary cabin is a split-level apartment with its own private stairwell. The suite features panoramic views of the ocean and a private terrace fitted with a jacuzzi. The remaining cabins are connected by a central elevator across three decks of the ship.
