5Myrtos Beach, Kefalonia

The beauty of Myrtos Beach lies in its contrasts—bright white pebbles, emerald-green hills, and the deep turquoise Ionian Sea. Set between two steep cliffs, this beach on Kefalonia Island offers a panorama that feels cinematic.
The clarity of the water is extraordinary, especially near the shore, where sunlight filters through the pebbles below. Myrtos is also known for its changing shades; depending on the weather and time of day, the water can appear ice blue, turquoise, or even silvery-white. It’s no surprise that Myrtos consistently ranks among Europe’s most beautiful beaches.
