Ithaca guide and map, the island of Odysseus: coves, villages, day plans.
Ithaca in one app: a guide to the island of Odysseus, a beach map and ready-made day plans. Vathy, Kioni and Frikes, the beaches of Gidaki and Filiatro, the Cave of the Nymphs and the School of Homer.
Planning a holiday in Ithaca (Ithaki, in Greek Ιθάκη) or already on the island? The app shows you what to see in Ithaca and takes you to its coves, beaches, villages and the places linked to the Odyssey. Every place comes with honest tips: where to park, when to arrive and whether it's really worth it.
ITHACA BEACHES
Gidaki, reached on foot by a path or by boat from Vathy, Filiatro and Sarakiniko near the capital, Dexia close to Vathy, Afales in the north, Skinos and Marmakas. Check access, parking and sunbeds before you go.
