Argostoli to Lixouri Ferry

Argostoli and Lixouri sit on opposite shores of the same stretch of water, the broad gulf that cuts into the west of Kefalonia, and the short ferry hop between them is more a local crossing than an inter-island voyage. For anyone based in Argostoli who fancies an afternoon in Lixouri, or the other way round, this is the easiest way to do it -- quicker than driving the long way round the gulf, and a pleasant way to see the town from the water. Check the schedule box above for the latest confirmed dates before you travel.

Because the gulf is tucked in behind the headland rather than open to the Ionian Sea proper, the crossing tends to stay calm even when there's a bit of wind about further out. Boats run right through the day at a steady clip, so this isn't a route that needs much planning -- you can generally turn up at the quay and expect another departure before too long, with several crossings an hour at the height of summer.
