Kefalonia (Cephalonia) VIP services - Travel & Leisure

Kefalonia (Cephalonia) is an island in the Ionian Sea, west of mainland Greece. It's marked by sandy coves and dry rugged landscapes. Its capital, Argostoli, is built on a hillside overlooking a narrow harbor. Kefalonia (Cephalonia)'s indented coastline is made up of limestone cliffs, bays and short strips of white sand, like Myrtos Beach in the north. Many beaches are only accessible on foot or via narrow twisting roads. Fiskardo, on the northern tip, was one of the few villages to escape the 1953 earthquakes that destroyed most settlements on Kefalonia (Cephalonia). It still has 18th-century Venetian-style houses, painted in pastel colors, and a picturesque harbor lined with cafes. The ruins of a 16th-century Venetian fort stand on the peninsula above the quiet northwestern village of Assos. The Drogarati Caves are filled with stalactites. Melissani Cave’s sunlit underground lake can be explored by boat. Inland, Mount Ainos National Park has pine forests, hiking trails and sweeping views.
