Zante Cruise Standard

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!

On Day 3, we will depart from Agia Efthimia, a picturesque village on Kefalonia, to the serene island of Ithaca, specifically to its charming port town of Vathi. Known for its tranquil ambiance, Vathi offers visitors a glimpse into traditional island life, with its narrow streets and stunning waterfront views. Surrounded by lush green hills and steeped in Greek history and mythology, Ithaca offers a unique escape from the bustling tourist crowds, making it the perfect spot to unwind and experience authentic island life.

On Day 4, we will leave the tranquil shores of Ithaca and set sail towards the peaceful island of Meganissi. Known for its untouched natural beauty and serene atmosphere, Meganissi is a small island just off the coast of Lefkada, offering a perfect escape from the more tourist-heavy spots in the Ionian. As you approach Meganissi, you'll be greeted by crystal-clear waters and lush green hills that surround the island's quiet bays and charming villages. 

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!  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!

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!

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! 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. Optional Zante Greek Night

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!
