The appeal of Kefalonia lies in the number of interesting places it has to visit, such as Ithaka, just a short ferry crossing from Kefalonia, which was home to Homer's fabled Odysseus, an island that has not changed in centuries. In contrast the towns of Skala, Fiskarado and Argostoli are renowned for their variety of excellent tavernas, bars and restaurants. Scala boasts many pavement cafes and its 4km of gently shelved beach makes it the perfect day trip for families. As well as magnificent scenery and some excellent beaches Kefalonia also boasts some unusual attractions, not least the underground caves at Melisani and Drogoratti that attract thousands of visitors each year.

Kefalonia is home to numerous beautiful beaches, many of which have be awarded a Blue Flag, an internationally recognised symbol of their high standards of cleanliness. One of the islands most famous beaches is Myrtos, a stunning golden sandy beach surrounded by vertical cliffs. The waters are a brilliant turquoise colour and are perfect for taking a refreshing dip in. Sun beds and umbrellas are available to hire as well as there being snack bars where you can grab a delicious snack or cold drink. Foki Beach is just a five minutes journey from the fishing of Fiscardo and is quite popular due to its location. The water is calm and the beach is pebbly but it does offer plenty of shade due to the trees that surround it.

Although a popular destination, Kefalonia has retained its charm and is an ideal choice for those wishing to find the 'unspoilt' Greece.
