Ithaka Gidaki

Mikros Gialos to Ithaka Gidaki. Definitely a fair weather anchorage on the island of Ithaka. The Ionians are tricky as the ground is exceptionally deep and then suddenly rises right next to the coastline. So it means either a lot of anchor or anchor uncomfortablly close to the shore. Which is what we did to in order to make a video for Heidi who is battling with stage 4 cancer at the moment with her #fuckcancer support group. Not planning to stay overnight turned into exactly that as the weather was perfect and only a small amount of swell. A nice 8k and 300m elevation hike for shopping up and over to Vathi Town and a cup of coffee to find out was a public holiday but it was a special hike.
