Sleeping

Sleeping in Igoumenitsa isn't easy if you are on a budget and dont have a room. If you have to spend the night in Igoumenitsa and are planning to set up a tent ect. in the hills right nex to the port (South to the parking lot) beware that there can be suspecius people roaming around here (May, 2012). If you want to take a long walk it's recommended to find a really remote spot outside the city (beatiful area by the way) or you could try asking if you can sleep in the ferry terminal in wich you will, or have, probably spend a lot of time trying to get a free ticket to Italy.

There are some unfinished and abandoned houses in Igoumenitsa in which one could spend the night but while searching for such place beware of angry straydogs roaming around in the streets. Theres a lot of them in Igoumenitsa.
