Ithaca Destination

Ithaca has been ruled by many different civilisations throughout time, perhaps due to its unique geographical position and with one of the largest natural harbours in the world, a haven for navigators from far off lands, including pirates, wanting to claim this island for themselves! Influences from these invasions are still apparent today, making this apparently sleepy, mythological island actually quite cosmopolitan!

What better location then for a family holiday, an old fashioned holiday discovering the old mule paths and small mountain villages, Byzantine churches & windmills – clambering over ancient ruins and discovering caves, trying to locate the 1500 year old olive tree, exploring the coastline by boat and swimming in the crystal blue sea!
