Kefalonia is the largest yet less populated of the Ionian Islands. That increases the chances to find you all alone in one of some dozens pristine beaches. If you love large busy beaches, you will have a hard time trying to choose between one of the most iconic beaches worldwide, the famous Myrtos, or the green bay of Antisamos or even more the long sandy strip of Skala.

Kefalonian nature is spectacular. Apart from the emerald crystal clear warm waters, the numerous beaches and breathtaking shoreline, the island has the magnificent mountain Aenos, which is home to endemic flora species and to wildlife that includes wild horses. Wondering around the island you will find hundred years old vineyards and ancient olive trees.

The historical heritage of Kefalonia dates back to the prehistoric times, but the most impressive ruins and artifacts come from the Homeric era. No wonder why Kefalonia claims to be the true kingdom of Ulysses! The influence of Venetian occupation for 400 years is obvious not only in the impressive fortresses of Ag. Georgios and Assos but also in culture, music food and wine making.
