If you are dreaming of sailing off, keep in mind the emerald waters of the seaworthy Ionian Sea. Just head at the depth of the horizon, where the sky seems to be leaning on the sea. Feel the sun, the sea breeze and the ultimate sense of freedom. Enjoy unique underwater landscapes. Drop your anchor in coves and hidden beaches, dive in emerald waters and as the night falls, live the romance under the stars…
The famous Ionian Islands, near the Western coastline of Greece’s mainland, (Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos, Lefkada, Ithaca, Paxoi, Kythira), surrounded by smaller island clusters, are lying in glimmering turquoise waters ready to introduce you to their hidden beauties!
Set sails for Kefalonia; stop by the cosmopolitan Fiskardo on northern side of the island. If it happens to be way too crowded and you can’t anchor here then head towards the bay of Argostoli, the marina in Lixouri or Agia Eufimia in the easternmost part of the Island. Kefalonia has numerous beaches, one better than the other: Petani, Platia Ammos, Koutsoupia, Dafnoudi, Foki, Vatsa, Atheras, Xi and many more. For more private dives… sail to Vardianoi, a deserted island south of Lixouri.
Last but not least, across from Kefalonia is the mythical hometown of Odysseus, Ithaki. The cozy harbour in Vathi is always ‘flooded’ by sailors who want to feel the mysterious energy of the island. Enjoy unforgettable dives in crystal clear waters at Afales, Schino, Kathisma, Sykia, and the famous Gidaki beaches.
Just get on board!
