Wooded mountains, long sandy beaches and small bays determine the landscape of Kefalonia Island<\/strong>. Hardly any other Greek island is so diverse: in the south you will find countless sandy beaches and lush greenery, while the north is more of a rugged beauty, mountainous and with spectacular scenery.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Beach paradise Kefalonia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mass tourism and bed castles are not to be found here. There are rather small and medium-sized hotels, apartments and holiday homes. The island is a true destination for nature lovers. Kefalonia is wonderful for a combined hiking and bathing holidays in Greece<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Kefalonia is one of the greenest islands in Greece and the inhabitants are proud of the unique fir forest on Mount Ainos<\/strong>, which has been a nature reserve since 1962. Wild horses also live around the Ainos, which you can meet on a hike with luck.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Hiking in the mountainous region of the island<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You can stay in one place on Kefalonia (Cephalonia) to go on a beach holiday and take part in an organized excursion from time to time, but the island only becomes a real experience when you explore it on your own.<\/p>\n

Enclosed our guest author Heike from the blog KefaloniaWay<\/em> her 10 highlights on the island in the Ionian Sea:<\/p>\n

#1 Argostoli: Capital of Kefalonia<\/h2>\n

Kefalonia is the largest of the seven Ionian Islands<\/a> and with a population of less than 40,000, a very sparsely populated one. The reason for this is a severe earthquake that hit the island in 1953, in which most of the houses were destroyed at the time.<\/p>\n

A few years later, more than half of the inhabitants had left the island. It was only with the stronger development of tourism in the 1990s that the population slowly rose again for the first time in decades. The majority of the inhabitants now live in the Main town Agostoli<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"koutavos
Koutavos Lagoon near Argostoli<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Anyone expecting whitewashed houses with flat roofs like in the Aegean Sea on Kefalonia will look in amazement at pastel-coloured houses with pointed roofs and roof tiles. Here, the Venetian architectural style<\/strong> because this was the predominant architectural style for centuries during Venetian rule.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Argostoli in the morning hours<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you enter Argostoli from the south, you will drive along the Koutavos Lagoon towards the centre. Worth seeing is the De Bosset Bridge<\/strong> (also Drapano Bridge), which leads from here to the other side of the lagoon.<\/p>\n

It was built during the British protectorate in 1813 and entered the Guinness Book of World Records in 2018. At almost 700 meters, it is the longest stone bridge that leads over sea water. First and foremost, however, as a pedestrian bridge, it offers a beautiful walk across the lagoon.<\/p>\n

Sea turtles in the port of Argostoli<\/h3>\n

A sight not to be missed are the Sea turtles (Caretta Caretta)<\/strong>, who gather in the harbour every day when the fishing boats arrive to sell their catch. Similar to the neighboring Zakynthos Turtles<\/a> they also get together on Kefalonia to mate.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Turtles in the harbor bay<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The sea turtles, which can be up to one metre tall and weigh up to 100 kilos, have now learned that something always falls off for them when the fishermen throw unusable things overboard. This is then gladly accepted as a small snack. The best time is between morning and noon, before the fishermen leave again.<\/p>\n

There are also excursion boats in the harbour, with which you can go on day trips and head for various beaches. Lunch on board (or on the beach) is included. Also on the rise are Kefalonia Fishing Trips<\/strong> on a fishing boat, where swimming stops are also made. The catch is then freshly prepared for the guests on board.<\/p>\n

Shops, cafes and a small museum<\/h3>\n

Argostoli with its 10,000 inhabitants is not a buzzing big city. But that’s probably what makes it so charming. Along the main road that runs along the banks of the Gulf of Argostoli<\/strong>, you will find small shops, fruit and vegetable stalls, cafes and taverns. Parallel to the main street there is a pedestrian zone with other shops.<\/p>\n

\"argostoli
In the port of Argostoli<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Above the theatre is the library, on the ground floor of which there is a small Folklore Museum<\/strong> . The pieces that can be seen here were donated by families of the island and put together with a lot of love to form an exhibition.<\/p>\n

Here you can see clothes from the 18th and 19th centuries, Venetian lace handicrafts, furniture, church art and especially interesting: a photo exhibition in which you can see Kefalonia before the earthquake of 1953 (see article: Greece Earthquake<\/a>) and immediately afterwards.<\/p>\n

#2 Ferry trip to the Paliki Peninsula<\/h2>\n

How about enjoying a coffee or a walk from Argostoli with the little car ferry to Lixouri<\/strong> to drive over? Lixouri is the second largest city in Kefalonia with about 4,500 inhabitants and is located on the Paliki peninsula. The half-hour ferry ride alone is a pleasure when you sit on the sun deck and watch the coast pass you by.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Lixouri in the evening<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In Lixouri there is a central square with cafes all around and a small pedestrian street. If you take the car on the ferry, Lixouri is a good starting point to explore the west of the island.<\/p>\n

\"Kefalonia
Dream beaches on the Paliki peninsula<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The most beautiful beaches on Paliki are the red-sand Xi-Beach, Petani<\/strong> and Atheras<\/strong>. But as everywhere else on Kefalonia, beautiful beaches and small bays can be found everywhere along the coast.<\/p>\n

#3 Kefalonia beaches in the south<\/h2>\n

Between Argostoli and Skala in the far south, there are countless beautiful Kefalonia beaches<\/strong>. Some are organized with beach chairs, water sports and beach bars, others are natural.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udca1 Kefalonia book tip: <\/strong>The Kefalonia travel guide from Michael M\u00fcller Verlag contains numerous travel tips for Kefalonia (and Ithaca), hiking routes and beautiful beach recommendations. Order here: View on Amazon*<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"kefalonia<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Actually, you can drive every few kilometers from the main road towards the sea to find a small or larger beach. Here is a (really very small) selection:<\/p>\n

Makris Gialos<\/h3>\n

The long sandy beach is only 2 km away from Argostoli on the Resort Lassi<\/strong> situated. Here you will find beach bars, sun loungers and water sports. In summer, the beach is extremely busy.<\/p>\n

\"Kefalonia
Evening atmosphere at Makris Gialos beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Avithos and Megali Petra<\/h3>\n

These sandy beaches in the Kalligata-Svoronata<\/strong> The areas are next to each other and are only separated by a few rocks through which you can walk to the other beach.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
The sandy beach of Avithos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On the Avithos Beach<\/strong> there is a beach bar and beach chairs. If you want it to be very quiet, go right through a few rocks to Megali Petra beach. Both beaches slope very gently into the water, so they are also ideal for children.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
Beach walk at Megali Petra<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The restaurant is recommended for a refreshment after a day at the beach “To Enetiko”<\/strong>, which is located directly above Avithos beach. The landlord is supplied with fresh fish every day.<\/p>\n

Mounda Bay<\/h3>\n

There are two beaches here, Kaminia and Potamakia<\/strong>, which are very wide and 3 km long. Sun loungers are offered on the beach, but you also have plenty of space to find your own quiet spot.<\/p>\n

\"straende

These are the main sandy beaches for the Caretta sea turtles, which bury their eggs in the sand here in the summer. Areas cordoned off with plastic tape mark nests in the sand.<\/p>\n

Skala Beach<\/h3>\n

Below Skala is the 2 km long sandy-pebble beach. There are beach chairs, beach bars and water sports. Skala has become the main tourist destination in the last 20 years. Nevertheless, the popular holiday resort Skala<\/strong> has not lost its charm and the long beach is spacious enough not to be overcrowded.<\/p>\n

\"skala
Beach day at Skala Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

#4 Monastery of St. Andrew<\/h2>\n

That St. Andrew’s Monastery<\/strong> south of Peratata is less known than the larger monastery of the island’s saint Gerasimos. However, the monastery of St. Andrew offers a small but very interesting museum and a monastery church, which was largely spared from the earthquake of 1953.<\/p>\n

\"kloster
Idyll in the monastery courtyard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you want to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of an old Orthodox church, this small church is highly recommended.<\/p>\n

In addition, a second, newer church is part of it. In this second, larger church, which exists on the monastery grounds, the treasure of the monastery is kept, namely a holy relic. It is the right sole of the Apostle Andrew<\/strong>, which was donated in 1639 by the Greek-Romanian princess Roxana when she joined the monastery.<\/p>\n

\"kloster
A visit to the monastery of Agios Andreas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The monastery was originally founded in the 13th century, then was abandoned for centuries until it was refounded by three sisters in 1579. The old, Orthodox church is part of the museum and is worth the visit alone.<\/p>\n

In the 19th century, at the time of the British Protectorate, the monastery was used by the British as an orphanage and the monastery church as a school for the children. The wall paintings were whitewashed with plaster. When the British withdrew in 1864, the buildings were then used as a monastery again.<\/p>\n

Due to the heavy Earthquake of 1953<\/strong> almost all buildings were destroyed, only the small monastery church remained almost unscathed. However, during the quake, plaster fell from the church walls and exposed the originally plastered wall paintings from the 17th century, which can be admired again today. There is also a 17th-century iconostasis, ancient icons, and many rescued artifacts from the numerous destroyed churches in the area.<\/p>\n

#5 Kastro: The Fortress of St. George<\/h2>\n

Above the monastery of St. Andrew near the village of Peratata lies the Venetian Fortress of St. George<\/strong>, also called Kastro. Its walls are visible from afar on a 320 m high hill.<\/p>\n

\"kefalonia
View of the Kastro of Kefalonia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From 1500 to 1757, the fortress was the seat of Venetian rule and the capital of Kefalonia. Argostoli was only the associated port at the time and was only made the capital in 1757.<\/p>\n

\"kastro
Walk along the castle walls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From the Kastro<\/strong> you have a fantastic view over a part of the south of the island. Within the castle walls, you can walk among the ruins, a display board explains where the buildings were once located.<\/p>\n

Directly below the castle there is the Kastro Caf\u00e9<\/strong>, which is run by a Greek-English couple. Here you can sit in a small paradise of flowers and trees and enjoy homemade cake and snacks as well as the peaceful idyll of the place.<\/p>\n

#6 Central Kefalonia: Mountains, Wine & Caves<\/h2>\n

You can drive from Argostoli towards Sami or from Kastro towards the interior (the road behind the Kastro towards Troianata and Valsamata).<\/p>\n

This small country road soon leads through vineyards to the Valley of Omala<\/strong>, where both the Robola winery, where you can do a wine tasting, and the monastery of the island’s patron saint Gerasimos are located.<\/p>\n

There is a magnificent new church, which is only open with luck, and the smaller monastery church, where the body of the saint, who died in the 16th century, is kept in a silver coffin.<\/p>\n

Far-reaching view from the highest mountain on the island<\/h3>\n

The road leads out of the valley and then up to the Mount Ainos<\/strong> (and on to Sami). You can go up to the summit of the Ainos, whose fir forest is a nature reserve.<\/p>\n

\"gipfel
View from the summit of Kefalonia’s coast<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For hiking enthusiasts, there are several hiking trails here that are marked with signs. But even if you don’t want to hike, you will be greeted with a fantastic view from the 1,628-metre-high highest mountain in the Ionian Islands<\/strong> rewarded.<\/p>\n

Stalactite Cave Drogarati<\/h3>\n

Halfway up, you can also leave the Ainos on the right and follow the road to Sami. Shortly before Sami, on the left, there is the Stalactite Cave Drogarati<\/strong>, which is a must for cave lovers. Because of the fantastic acoustics, concerts have been held in the cave in the past.<\/p>\n

\"drogarati
Guided tour of the Drogarati Cave<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Shortly before the Drogarati Cave, a sign on the right side of the road indicates a hiking trail along a narrow river. Here the hiking trail leads to the ruins of old watermills<\/strong> along.<\/p>\n

#7 Visiting Sami<\/h2>\n

That harbour town of Sami<\/strong> is one of the main ports of Kefalonia. From here you can cross to the neighboring island of Ithaca in 45 minutes or in summer to Patras on the Peloponnese<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you drive through Sami to the end, where the harbour police are located, you continue on a smaller road that leads you uphill through a small forest towards Antisamos beach.<\/p>\n

\"sami
Remains of the ancient Acropolis of Sami<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Halfway along the route, you can follow a road uphill to the right until you reach the ruins of the Acropolis of Sami<\/strong>. Here you park on the road and climb a path uphill on foot and find yourself in the place that was the city-state of S\u00e1mi from the 5th to the 2nd century BC.<\/p>\n

\"sami
View of Sami Bay<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There were four city-states on Kefalonia at that time until the Romans conquered the island and its city-states in 189 BC. From up here you have a fantastic view down to Sami and the small neighboring island of Ithaca<\/strong> over.<\/p>\n

\"antisamos
Dream in turquoise blue: Antisamos Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you drive back down to the road that leads to the Antisamos Beach <\/strong>leads, <\/strong>so soon a beautiful view over the bay awaits you. Not so many years ago, Antisamos was still an insider tip. There are now several beach bars and restaurants, and in summer it is quite busy.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udca1 Kefalonia luggage:<\/strong> Antisamos is a stone beach with coarse pebbles, as is typical for Kefalonia, so beach shoes (View on Amazon*<\/a>) is helpful. You can find out what else comes in the suitcase here: Greece Packing List<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

#8 Melissani Lake and Cave in Karavomilos<\/h2>\n

A highlight on Kefalonia is the underground Lake of Melissani<\/strong>. It is located just 5 minutes from Sami. Part of its cave ceiling collapsed several thousand years ago, allowing sunlight to fall into the lake.<\/p>\n

As soon as the sun’s rays hit the lake at noon, the water shines in an unreal glowing turquoise.<\/p>\n

\"Kefalonia
Melissani: The Cave Lake of Kefalonia ( \u00a9 Adobe Stock)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Many myths surround the lake. According to a local legend, the Nymph Melissanthe<\/strong> felt immortal in love with the god Pan. However, he did not return her love. So the unfortunate nymph threw herself into the lake and drowned.<\/p>\n

Archaeological investigations have found finds from the 4th to 3rd centuries BC, including a figurine of the god Pan and a clay plate depicting dancing nymphs.<\/p>\n

\"melissani
The Dancing Nymphs of Melissani<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Through a short tunnel you go down to the lake, where rowers wait with their boats for visitors to row them across the lake to the back of the cave.<\/p>\n

Coffee break in Agia Efimia<\/h3>\n

If you continue along the coast from Sami and Melissani, you will reach the coast after a few minutes. Agia Efimia<\/strong>, a former fishing village. In recent years, the place has become a popular port of call for sailboats sailing between the Ionian Islands from port to port.<\/p>\n

\"agia
Coffee break in Agia Efimia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Agia Efimia is a beautifully situated, friendly village and invites you to a coffee stop or a lunch break. Along the harbour pier there are numerous restaurants and caf\u00e9s where you can fortify yourself.<\/p>\n

#9 Myrtos Beach and the rugged beauty of the north<\/h2>\n

Just 15 minutes from Agia Efimia (or 45 minutes from Argostoli if you take the coastal road) is the Myrtos Beach <\/strong>on the cliffs of the northwest.<\/p>\n

It is the most famous beach in Kefalonia and one of the most photographed beaches in Greece. The play of colours in the sea changes daily between deep blue and turquoise to milky blue, depending on the wind and waves.<\/p>\n

\"myrtos
The spectacular Myrtos Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The view from the Myrtos Observation Deck<\/strong> on the road, hundreds of meters above the beach, can only be described as breathtaking. But be careful when swimming: there are strong undercurrents here and you should not swim out in waves.<\/p>\n

Idyllic villages in the north of Kefalonia<\/h3>\n

The road along the cliffs to the north leads first to Assos and then on to Fiskardo. That picturesque fishing village of Assos<\/strong> is picturesquely located in a small bay and is dominated by a more than 400-year-old Venetian fortress that towers high above the village.<\/p>\n

\"halbinsel
View of the Assos peninsula with Kastro<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Anyone who takes the trouble to Fortress of Assos<\/strong> (approx. 40 min) will be amazed at the size of the fortress interior and the wide view over the north. There are still old buildings to see and you can walk between the fields that used to be cultivated here.<\/p>\n

\"assos
The picturesque bay of Assos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In Assos, you should take the time to sit in one of the caf\u00e9s by the water and just let the atmosphere work its magic on you.<\/p>\n

#10 Fiskardo: The star among Kefalonia’s places<\/h2>\n

Too Fiskardo<\/strong> is beautifully situated around a bay. It is the only place that was not destroyed by the 1953 earthquake. Here you can see what the places looked like before the earthquake with their houses from the 18th and 19th centuries.<\/p>\n

\"fiskardo
Fiskardo: A place straight out of a picture book<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Fiskardo has been popular among sailors<\/strong> and celebrities. Hollywood stars have also been drawn here. That’s why the price level is generally quite high. But you can just sit here beautifully right by the water and enjoy the view over the bay.<\/p>\n

Fiskardo has a long history and was already used as a port by the Romans in the 2nd century BC to the 4th century AD. A Roman cemetery<\/strong> can be found directly on the shore if you go out of the bay to the right.<\/p>\n

\"fiskardo
In the port of Fiskardo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A relaxing little walk is the hike to the Venetian Palace, which dates back to the 16th century. The Fiskardo Lighthouse<\/strong>, which is located on a small headland on the left side of the bay.<\/p>\n

Just a few metres away is the younger, Victorian lighthouse from 1892. This walk runs along the shore and takes about half an hour.<\/p>\n

\"emplisi
The Emplisi Beach near Fiskardo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you need to cool off in the sea, you will find two small bays in the vicinity of Fiskardo, the Foki Beach<\/strong> and the Emplisi Beach<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udca1 Kefalonia Visiting Tip:<\/b> The best time to visit Fiskardo is in the morning\/morning or again from the afternoon. The lunchtime between 12:30 and 14:30 can suddenly be very hectic, when several excursion boats arrive almost at the same time and a mass of visitors stream through the narrow streets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
