About the area

Cephalonia, the largest of the Ionian Islands in Greece, is a captivating destination that offers a blend of stunning natural beauty, rich history, and charming local culture. Known for its dramatic landscapes, the island boasts mountainous terrain, lush forests, and some of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. One of the island's most famous beaches is Myrtos, renowned for its dazzling white pebbles and turquoise waters, set against a backdrop of steep cliffs. It's a perfect spot for sunbathing, swimming, and capturing breathtaking photographs. Similarly, Antisamos Beach, featured in the film "Captain Corelli's Mandolin," offers a picturesque setting with its crystal-clear waters and surrounding green hills. Cephalonia is also home to the enchanting Melissani Cave, where visitors can take a boat ride on an underground lake that is illuminated by a natural skylight, creating a magical atmosphere. The nearby Drogarati Cave, with its impressive stalactites and stalagmites, is another geological marvel not to be missed. The island's rich history is evident in its various archaeological sites and historic landmarks. The Castle of Saint George, perched atop a hill near the village of Peratata, provides panoramic views of the island and a glimpse into its Venetian past. The Archaeological Museum in the capital, Argostoli, offers insights into Cephalonia's ancient history, showcasing artifacts from the Mycenaean, Hellenistic, and Roman periods. Cephalonia's villages are full of character and charm, with Assos being one of the most picturesque. This small village is built on a peninsula and features colorful houses, a Venetian fortress, and tranquil harbors. Fiscardo, another beautiful village, retains its traditional Ionian architecture and is a hub for yachting, with a vibrant waterfront lined with cafes and restaurants. The island's culinary offerings are a delight, with local tavernas serving fresh seafood, traditional Greek dishes, and the famous Robola wine, which is produced in Cephalonia's own vineyards. The island's olive oil and honey are also highly prized for their quality and flavor. For those who love adventure, Cephalonia provides ample opportunities for hiking, with Mount Ainos, the highest peak in the Ionian Islands, offering challenging trails and the chance to encounter the unique Kefalonian fir tree. Water sports enthusiasts can enjoy snorkeling, diving, and kayaking in the island's clear waters. In essence, Cephalonia is a destination that offers something for everyone, from breathtaking natural wonders and historical treasures to delightful culinary experiences and warm Greek hospitality. It's a place where the beauty of the Ionian Sea meets the charm of traditional Greek island life.
