9Myrtos Beach, Kefalonia

Myrtos is stunning, with its crescent shape and dramatic cliffs, but its beauty masks unpredictable dangers. The beach faces open seas where strong undercurrents and sudden waves are common.

The seabed drops steeply, so swimmers can find themselves in deep water within just a few steps. Lifeguard presence is seasonal and limited, meaning those who underestimate the sea here may find themselves in serious trouble.
