majestic fjord

Ithaque - Fiskardo
A beautiful small harbour
located north east of the

saved from the seism of 1953. The frontages and the coloured shutters of its
traditional houses make it as a true stage set, very crowded in summer.

. The
5th day:
Zante - Cephalonie (Assos)
Assos is an adorable small fishermen village,
amphitheatre shape built.
surrounded by pine trees, cypresses and terrace cultivation;
it is one of the most beautiful villages on the island. It is nested in a tiny
bay protected by a rocky peninsula.
The port is facing an
impressive fortress built by the Venetians in XVI century,

Meganisi is scarcely inhabited,
however you will find splendid moorings
A small path leads from

Meganisi - Levkas
The town planning of Levkas does not offer a very great interest, the earthquake
of 1953 having demolished the city, but the charm still exists; the sea is
omnipresent with lots of sea birds : cormorants,
pelicans and herons.
8th day:
check out at 09h
If you have spare time,
leave your luggage to the base manager and go for a walk in the lanes of Levkas.
