Route guide

Vasiliki, Lefkada to Frikes, Ithaca ferry

Vasiliki, Lefkada–Frikes, Ithaca is part of the current Ionian ferry network. Ionion P. Lines’ peak 2026 timetable shows direct Vasiliki–Frikes sailings in about one hour, while some shoulder-season dates operate via Fiskardo and therefore take longer. Current 2026 information supports daily seasonal service in the published 2026 programme; on many late-July to early-September dates the direct crossing runs without a Fiskardo call. Recheck the dated timetable before travel because these services can change materially between peak summer and the shoulder season.

Ionion P. Lines provides the operator coverage used for this guide. The service is designed for foot passengers and booked vehicles, but the exact passenger spaces, food service, accessibility arrangements and pet facilities depend on the assigned vessel. Compare those details before paying.

At Frikes, Ithaca, the ferry arrives at Frikes Ferry Port, Ithaca. Frikes is a small harbour village in northern Ithaca. It offers a convenient arrival point for Stavros, Kioni and northern beaches without driving up from Pisaetos. If you are connecting onward, allow a realistic buffer: small Ionian ports can be efficient, but separate ferry tickets do not guarantee a protected connection when weather or timetable changes intervene.

Look beyond the headline fare when comparing Vasiliki, Lefkada to Frikes, Ithaca. Departure time, ticket flexibility and the transfer after arrival can make a different sailing more convenient overall.

Timetables can change between seasons and weekdays. Check the live result for the exact sailing date, vessel and check-in requirement before arranging tightly timed onward plans.

Select the correct passenger category before comparing Vasiliki, Lefkada to Frikes, Ithaca fares. A passenger-only boat cannot take a car, and a vehicle ferry may still have limited bicycle or foot-passenger availability.

For a vehicle booking, give the full height and length including a roof box, rear rack or trailer. Where accommodation is offered, check whether a cabin or seat is required and whether meals are included.
