Kefalonia is the biggest island of the Ionian Sea at the outlet of Patraikos Bay, between Zante and Lefkada. It is the island of contrasts with landscapes and beaches for all tastes. The great mountain Enos and the variety of beaches (stony, white sand, red sand beaches) contribute to the island’s scenery differentiation. In mountain Enos, which is also known as the Black Mountain because of the rare species of black fir that flourishes there, travelers can enjoy an unforgettable mountain hike. Kefalonia is also an island of mysteries since some geological phenomena are yet to be explained. The Moving Rock, the Argostoli sinkholes where the water disappears and the snakes of Holy Mary are some of the island’s mysteries.
Argostoli, which is the island capital, is a modern town that preserves its traditional character. It is built amphitheatrically with a view of the Koutavous lagoon, which is a crossing area for the migratory birds. The city has many neoclassical buildings, big squares, churches and remarkable cultural activity. Lixouri is the second largest city of Kefalonia and faces the capital, Argostoli, across a kind of elongated bay. Fiskardo, at the northern tip of the island, is popular with yachts and rather pricey and upmarket. Fiskardo is the only part of the island which survived the earthquakes of the last century intact, but extensive refurbishment and repairs have given it a rather bijoux feel rather than one of authentic old Kefalonia. In the northern part of Kefalonia lies a beautiful village, Assos, which is built like an amphitheatre around the peninsula, surrounded by pine and cypress trees. It is a traditional village which has retained the traditional Ionian architecture for the most part.
The sinks in Kefalonia are one of the many geological attractions, that are cracked - openings in the ground next to the sea. The water which enters from there follows a wide underground path across almost the entire island. The Garden of Napier is an attraction that offers peace and relaxation. It is an elevated wooded park with various species of plants and trees inside of Argostoli. Being in Kefalonia visitors shouldn’t neglect visiting the beautiful and exceptional caves of Melissani and Drogarati, the scenic villages of Fiskardo and Assos where they can have peaceful, relaxing and romantic walks and taste the traditional flavours in the local restaurants.
Agonas is a beautiful village built on the green slope of a mountain, offering breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea, 19 km from the town of Argostoli.
Kefalonia has one of the most famous beaches in Greece and worldwide, Myrtos, as well as the beaches of Foki, Petani, Makris and Platis Gialos, Avithos, Skala, Antisamos, Atheras and Lepeda.
