Beach· Ithaca· Greece — Ionian, Saronic & Argolic

Gidaki Beach

38° 23.1′ N · 20° 44.0′ E

A white-pebble beach under a big white cliff scar on Ithaca's east coast, reached only by boat or a tough path — the most beautiful beach near Vathi.

Practical

Aim for the large white scar north of Cape Gidakiou. Day anchorage off the beach; water-taxis run from Vathi in season. The overland path is steep and tiring. No facilities. Exposed to easterlies.
