Here on Kefalonia, the largest and most beautiful Ionian island, the pace of life is a little more relaxed. Enjoy a pleasant stroll along the promenade lined with oleanders and palm trees, which runs parallel to the harbour quay. Argostoli was repeatedly shaken by earthquakes, but was mostly able to preserve its original townscape You can enjoy a stroll through the old town and explore sights such as the rebuilt monastery of Agios Gerasimos or the main church, which is decorated with many frescoes. The surrounding area around Argostoli with its cypress, olive and pine groves is also a wonderful place to explore. Whether it’s on the beach of Myrtos, at the harbour of the sleepy fishing village of Agia Efimia or in the bizarre world of the Melissani or Drogarati caves – you will be amazed.
