Frikes Village Ithaca: The beautiful coastal settlement of Frikes is built on the east coast of Ithaca, at 20 kilometres from Vathy, at the head of a long narrow bay.
The village was founded after the 16th century by the inhabitants of Axogi and Stavros. Only a hundred residents still live permanently in Frikes and the population increases during the summer months, in the touristy period.
The picturesque port of Frikes lies deep into the bay, surrounded by little houses and hosting the fishing boats of the inhabitants of the village and of the surrounding area. During the summer, there is a ferry boat departing to Kefallonia and Lefkada.
Frikes offers nice taverns and shops, which are lining on its waterfront, a modern hotel, various, cafes, restaurants and an outdoor night club functioning only during summer, offering live music, food and the possibility to dance all night long. |
