5Kefalonia: The Island of Contrasts
Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian islands, is a land of striking contrasts. From its rugged mountains and underground caves to its idyllic beaches and charming villages, Kefalonia offers a diverse range of experiences.
Myrtos Beach, with its dazzling white pebbles and turquoise waters, is one of the island’s most iconic landmarks. The Melissani Cave, a subterranean lake where sunlight filters through an opening in the roof, creates an ethereal atmosphere that’s best explored by boat. Don’t miss the picturesque village of Assos, with its pastel-colored houses and Venetian castle ruins.
