All places on this island are infested with rats that might climb mooring lines or even swim to anchor chain and climb it to get on board. Our friends got one in 2018 and it inflicted serious damage to electric and water installations.
The story is that Meganisi was overrun with cats a few years ago. The authorities wiped them out, giving the rats plenty of opportunity to flourish. Cats are now returning in increasing numbers, so maybe the rats will be reduced in number. For now, it would be prudent to avoid this island.

September 2017. Odyseas Marina is a good value marina with lazy lines run to the dockside; anchoring is prohibited. Provides good shelter, even from the prevailing NW, and excellent shelter against a S blow.
The staff was very professional and friendly, guiding us into our allocated berth and quite prepared to help handle lines for the short-handed. The general facilities were, for the most part, clean, pleasant and serviceable. Services and amenities were all good: water and electricity were metered and added to the basic berthing charge. Ashore there were markets, shops, and multiple quality dining options. Cars, scooters, and bicycles are available for hire to explore further afield.

We were there in Sept 18. The location is nice - lots of shops and a little beach you can walk to. Staff were helpful in berthing when we could get them on the radio. There weren’t very many facilities for showers and we waited for more than an hour. I would probably choose to go to a location which is free or linked to a restaurant.
