About this tour

Sail to Serene Ithaka – A Day of Hidden Beaches, Crystal Waters & Pure Relaxation

Set sail on a traditional wooden boat and drift towards the timeless charm of Ithaka Island, a place where the sea sparkles brighter, the air feels lighter, and time slows down just enough to notice it.

The journey begins with gentle cruising along the Ionian coastline, soaking in sweeping views and sea breezes. Along the way, secret beaches and turquoise coves call for swim stops that feel like a dream. The water? Crystal clear and endlessly inviting. Snorkel gear is on board, perfect for spotting colorful fish or simply floating with the sun on your face 🌊.

The cruise continues to Vathi, Ithaka’s picture-perfect capital, with its pastel harbor houses and relaxed island vibe. There’s time to wander the narrow streets, grab a coffee or ice cream, or just sit back and enjoy the moment, because that’s what this trip is all about 🏝️.

🍹 Back on board, there’s room to spread out, sip on cold drinks, and bask in the sun or find a shady spot while the boat rocks gently on the waves. Whether you’re after relaxation, a touch of adventure, or just want to escape the crowds, this cruise delivers it all with a calm, authentic touch.

Forget the tourist ferries. This is a small-group, easy-going experience, hosted by locals who know and love these waters like the back of their hands. The vibe is friendly, the views are unbeatable, and the memories? Guaranteed to last ⛵.
