Nothing Icky about Ithaca



This small island is almost attached to Cephalonia, separated only by a narrow channel. We stayed in the main port of Vathi, which has a deep bay with good protection from the winds and sea. It is a popular port for yachters and certainly caters to them. We refilled our water tanks with water delivered to the quay by an enterprising guy in a water truck You can get 100 liters for 6 euros. It sounds cheap but took about 24 euros to fill up our tanks. Most places provide water at no charge, but in Greece it is much more hit and miss. We are never sure when we will come across water again, so it was worth it.
