Detailed Itinerary by days

Day 1
Lefkas - Parga

From Lefkas' D-Marin, sail north along the emerald shoreline of the mainland. Dock in Parga, a postcard-perfect village where pastel homes run down to a turquoise bay. See sunset from the Venetian Castle, then indulge in saganaki prawns at a seaside bara. Tip: Swim at Valtos Beach; its golden sand is better than Caribbean beaches.

Day 2
Parga - Sivota

Glide south from Sivota, a protected harbor surrounded by olive orchard. Drop anchor in the Blue Lagoon, explore its crystalline waters, then lunch at a beachfront restaurant onbourdeto—spicy fish stew. In evening, sip sunset cocktails while the bay glows molten gold.

Day 3
Sivota - Corfu

Ship west to Corfu, where Greek zest meets Venetian grace. Go across the UNESCO-listed lanes of Corfu Town from Gouvia Marina. In a primitive taverna, savor the cobalt coves or pastitsada (cinnamon-laced beef stew) made by Paleokastritsa.

Day 4
Corfu - Paxos

Take a ferry to Paxos, a small island paradise with blue bays and olive trees. Swim in the Blue Caves near Lakka, and then check out Gaios's pastel-colored boardwalk. Bread soaked in olive oil and local Ladotyri cheese are a must-try.

Day 5
Paxos - Paxos

Enjoy a free day at Paxos! You can kayak to Mongonissi Islet, have a lunch at Erimitis Beach (which has cliffs and is wild), or look for sea glass at Levrecchio. A secret for sailors: anchor early in Lakka; it's small but beautiful.

Day 6
Paxos - Lefkas (Vasiliki Port)

Long sail east to the windsurfing paradise Lefkas found at Vasiliki. Catch the afternoon breeze and then relax in a village taverna using sofrito, garlicky veal. Tip: The sunset across Ionian Sea here is genuine drama.

Day 7
Vasiliki - Ithaka

Take Odysseus to Ithaka and dock in Vathy's horseshoe bay. After hiking to the Cave of the Nymphs, you can jump into the clear water of Dexa Bay. Rosé wine and grilled sardines for dinner outside under the stars.

Day 8
Ithaka - Ithaka

Discover Homer's island by going to the Archaeological Museum, sailing to the picture-perfect port of Kioni, or snorkeling in Polis Bay. Frikes' fish taverns are a hidden gem in the area. Try the octopus stifado.

Day 9
Ithaka - Kefalonia (Fiscardo Port)

Sail to Fiscardo, the fashionable pastel mansion harbor of Kefalonia. Walk the quay with cypress lines, swim at Emplisi Beach, and have kreatopita—meat pie. Watch yachts sparkle in the golden light at sunset.

Day 10
Fiscardo - Kastos

Get away to Kastos, an island caught in time. Anchor at the only harbor, climb to the abandoned windmills, then snorkel the Blue Cave. Dinner at Mama's taverna is straightforward excellence: tomato-stewed chickpeas.

Day 11
Kastos - Kastos

One free day to unplug. Kayak to Kastos Beach; fish off the rocks; read behind an olive tree. At the kafeneio, join residents for raki and dominoes in evening.

Day 12
Kastos - Kalamos

Short sail to Kalamos, a pine-covered refuge. Swim at the gravel beach of Port Kalamos, climb to the Old Village ruins, and have savoro fish—fried with rosemary and vinegar.

Day 13
Kalamos - Lefkas (D-Marin)

Re-enter Lefkas on the Meganisi Channel, stopping at Agiofili Beach for a last plunge. At a marina taverna, dock at D-Marin, toast with ouzo and remember over bakaliaros (salt cod).

Day 14
Lefkas - Check-out

Last breakfast in Lefkas Town among loukoumades, or honey dumplings. Search the market for handmade sandals or stroll across the floating bridges of the Lagoon. Disembark with hair stained with salt and an Ionian magic heart.
