Kefalonia Villages: Sami village in Kefalonia
Kefalonia Sami 01 Sami Kefalonia: Sami is located in the eastern coast of Kefalonia, on the bay of the same name (22 kilometres from the capital of the island), the village of Sami has a population of about 1000 inhabitants and was built nearby the ruins of one of the four main ancient cities of Kefalonia. Sami is the second most important port after the capital’s one and offers daily trips to Patras, Ithaca and Italy.

The seaside road of the village is boarded by many touristy taverns, cafes and lively bars.

Our Impressions:
There is a fair bit of tourism here and the village is also quite busy because of the boats that leave for Italy and Patra among other destinations. The port is not particularly noteworthy but there are a number of restaurants nearby. The main street contains many of the amenities that tourists seek. A very modern church lies just outside the centre. Just to the west is a dirty stretch of sand and stones which is not much of a beach but offers a good view of Ithaka.

Sami perhaps has most to offer in the sights that surround it: the caves and Antisamos Beach.
