Kefalonia Reviews -General

Kefalonia is the island that you can never get bored! So many places to visit, that in fact you will definitely wish you could stay more! We rented a car, that was the only way to visit some villages we saw to the web. We started our trip, visiting Sami and the famous cave of Melissani nearby. The locals actually call this the "lake-cave". After your visit there, you will understand why. The roof of the cave has totally collapsed at one part of the cave, giving you the impression that you are actually floating in a lake. Whatever it is, this place is stunning. There are small boats that are able to take you there, all times of the day, and in our case, the boatman was also our guide. The cave itself is not very big, but this is an experience you will remember for many, many years to come. At some point, you will come across a tiny isle, inside the cave. It is said that this isle was used for ceremonies in ancient time and this is the reason that the cave is also called, the cave of the Nymphs.

Another memorable stop in our trip around Kefalonia was Fiskardo. A not so big fish village with lots of restaurants at the port. The food, especially fish, was amazing! I could write for ages about all the places we visited... maybe I will add some more soon, but all in one: Stunning beaches and waters, do not miss Melissani Cave and of course, rent a car and travel! You will not regret one minute, not even from the time driving, the view and the secret places and beaches you can find are worthy every single second you've spent in your car.
