You have plenty of Vathy car hire options, as many types of vehicles are suitable to drive in the town. Having said that, it's always best to hire something small and practical when staying in small towns like this, first, because the streets are somewhat narrow and second, due to the number of pedestrians. There's no need to go roaring around in a sports car; rather get a compact city car or hatchback, or try a sedan if there are more of you. While a 4WD will certainly do you well on twisty mountain roads, it's not necessary; the good road surfaces provide all the traction you need.
The speed limits in Vathy and on the rest of Ithaca Island are the same as in mainland Greece. In the town's central district and other built-up or residential areas, the speed limit is 50 km/h (about 30 mph). Outside of these urban areas, you can travel at up to 90 km/h (about 55 mph). If you're on an expressway, the limit is 110 km/h (about 70 mph), while on the main motorways, you can drive at up to 130 km/h (about 80 mph). There isn't a large police presence, but don't let that lull you into speeding. If you go above the limit, you'll incur a hefty fine and possibly a driving ban.
The free parking in Vathy is predominantly in the car parks of the various hotels and resorts. Being a small town, you can often leave your car at your hotel and walk to your destination. It's also typically free to park at the town's beaches. Street parking is also not hard to come by, as this is one of the less-visited islands in Greece.

Some Vathy car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Vathy.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Vathy car hire.
