Ferry from Zante to Kefalonia

Zante Guide

Zante, otherwise known as Zakynthos, is a captivating Greek island in the Ionian Sea, celebrated for its stunning landscapes and vibrant charm. Known for its crystal-clear waters and pristine beaches, it is home to the iconic Navagio Beach, or Shipwreck Beach, where a weathered shipwreck lies framed by towering cliffs. The island offers a diverse range of experiences, from wandering through picturesque villages and admiring Venetian-inspired architecture to snorkeling in its turquoise waters, which provide a haven for endangered loggerhead sea turtles. While areas like Laganas are known for their lively nightlife, the tranquil countryside offers a more peaceful retreat. With its unique blend of natural beauty, rich history, and warm hospitality, Zante is an ideal destination for relaxation and adventure alike.

Kefalonia Guide

The Greek island of Kefalonia is the largest of the Ionian Islands and is located above the island of Zakynthos and west of the Peloponnese peninsula in western Greece. Around a third of the islands’ population reside in its capital Argostoli. Another third can be found at Lixouri, the second major settlement, with the rest of the population spread amongst the other regions of Kefalonia. Though Kefalonia is now a popular tourist destination attracting visitors from all over the world, it was relatively unknown to the international tourist until more recently. Something perhaps influenced by the Hollywood adaptation of Louis de Bernières' novel - Captain Corelli's Mandolin - which was set on the island. Like most of the Greek islands, Kefalonia is well prepared for the influx of tourists during the high season and is relatively easy to get to by ferry too. Ferry ports are situated on each side of the island, with Argostoli to the west, Poros to the south east and Sami towards the north east. Modern ferries travel to Kefalonia from Italy, the Greek mainland and other Greek islands with services increasing with demand during the high season
