Ithaca

Ithaca

‘As you set out for Ithaca
hope the voyage is a long one,
full of adventure, full of discovery.

Keep Ithaca always in your mind.
Arriving there is what you are destined for.’

 

‘Ithaca’ by Constantine Kavafis, 1911 – inspired by the Homeric return journey of Odysseus to his home island.

So, why Ithaca?

Because it’s Greece’s most mythical island.

The highlight:

The bust of Odysseus in the park of the central square of Stavros village, in the North.

Be aware of:

Sparse ferry schedules.

Go for:

Frikes village. “Friki” means “horror” in Greek, but don’t let this detail scare you; this small fishing village on the bay with the tiny harbor is pure magic.

The secret:

Hiking early in the morning will take you to pebbly beaches you can have entirely to yourself.
