Kefalonia Island - The Best Beaches In Greece
In our opinion, Kefalonia island has the best beaches in Greece! From Myrtos to Assos to Platias, this island is truly blessed with beaches. But that's not all that there is to offer here! In this week's episode, we rent another car on Kefalonia and explore for a few days. We drive all the way around the island (except for the Southeast) and see many beautiful places including the Paliki Peninsula, Assos Town, Myrtos Beach, Fiskardo, Argostoli, Sklavos Winery and much more! We eat delicious greek food, swim in some of the most beautiful water we've ever seen, meet new friends and try new wines!
This island is famous for having some of the best beaches in Greece, and while we agree that there are some spectacular stretches of sand, it's really the raw nature and laid back vibe of Kefalonia that we loved.
This is definitely one of the best islands in Greece and we will return one day to explore some more! For now, check out what we've seen so far!
VIDEO TRANSCRIPTION:
We're at our second island here in Greece this is Kefalonia. We just picked up this little ride from ETAM KCG Travel here on the island, we're going to be ripping around, checking out this place. It's famous for it's rocky coastline, pristine beaches and tasty wine. It's one of the largest islands in the Ionian Island chain and also one of the largest islands in Greece, so we definitely need a car.
So in this episode we're exploring Kefalonia. Let's do it guys!
We just checked into our hotel, this is White Rocks on Kefalonia Island. Which we're so happy about because check out our view from our amazing room. This hotel is set on two breathtaking blue flag beaches and we have a view of them right from our room here. It's incredible so we're so happy to be here for four nights and wake up to this view every morning. So we're just going to drop off our bags and go explore Kefalonia.
We spent the afternoon hanging out at the beaches near our hotel, and then we came out to this place, this is Sto Psito Restaurant. We've been told that they serve up traditional food using local ingredients and we're excited to try Kefalonian wine and the specialties as well. Plus there are supposed to be amazing views from the sunset terrace. I can tell already that it's going to be gorgeous so let's get in there.
We're now in Argostoli which is the capital of Kefalonia. This city like many places in the south end of the island was rocked by an earth quake in the 1950s so it's been rebuilt, but there are still nice buildings like this church here behind us and there's a beautiful seafront promenade that runs for probably a couple of kilometers so we're going to go hit that up right now.
So it wasn't until 1864 that these Ionian Islands became a part of Greece, before that they were occupied by the French, The Russians, The Italians, The Turks, so they've basically had a really different history from the rest of Greece. So they have their own traditions which we're getting to witness here today because their wearing traditional clothing and they're dancing and having a parade to celebrate 1864 when they officially reunited with Greece.
We just drove about an hour from the capital to come all the way over here on the other side of the peninsula to this little place, this is called Petani Beach and it's gorgeous but it's super windy and super wavy right now so we won't be swimming, but we're going to chill out in this little tavern for now and have some lunch.
So we just finished up a tasty lunch on the beach and then we drove for another twennty minutes and now we're in the little town of Lixoury. We're on the Paliki Peninsula and there is hardly anybody here. The drive took us through a lot of undeveloped areas and now we're in this town and I don't see anyone around there's just a bunch of fishing boats and it's pretty cool. So now we're just going to walk around, explore the plaza, have a coffee and explore this little town a little bit.
another short little drive from Lixoury town brought us here, this is Xi Beach. The sand here is unique in that it's really rust color and kind of reddish and there's mud here that you're supposed to rub all over your body and it's like a spa treatment for your skin.
So we're going to walk along this sand for a little bit and then this afternoon we're supposed to go for a wine tasting, so we don't have very much time to hangout on Xi Beach here but we'll do a little stroll on the sand here and then hop back in the car.
Last night when we ate at that Tavern we had that Sklavos wine that I said we just loved and today we're going to meet Mr.Sklavos, we're at the Sklavos Vineyard and I think we're going to walk around the vineyard and maybe try some more of this delicious wine!

Kefalonia (Cephalonia) Greece - Best Beaches and Places to Visit HD
Kefalonia (Cephalonia), the largest Ionian island, is one of the best beach vacation destinations to travel in Greece. Let us invite you for a 6-minute roundtrip on the island, presenting 15 of the best beaches and other places of interest. Many drone shots, recorded with DJI Mavic Air, help you to imagine the beauty of the island.
The 2 main cultural attractions of the island are the fishing village of Fiskardo and Assos with its Venetian castle. The main three natural attractions are Melissani underground lake, Drogarati Cave and Myrtos Beach, the latter is regarded as one of the best beaches in the Mediterranean. The movie Captain Corelli's Mandolin was shot on the island itself and helped Kefalonia to become more widely known.
Kefalonia is a popular vacation destination due to its beautiful beaches and its natural environment, but less crowded compared to other Ionian islands like Corfu or Zante (Zakynthos).
There are various beaches, pebble or sandy, most of them are stretching several hundred metres (or some kms), and you can often find places to hide away from crowds. In our travel video you can have a look at the following beaches: Myrthos, Agia Kyriaki, Petani, Agia Eleni, Xi, Makris Gialos and Platis Gialos in Lassi, Avithos, Lourdas, Koroni, Skala, Limenia, Poros, Antisamos, Foki.
Other places of interest: Assos village, Fiskardo village, Argostoli town, Melissani Cave and Drogarati Cave.

Special thanks go to Máté Vass for the drone shots (DJI Mavic Air).
Other shots were recorded with iPhone 8 and DJI Osmo 2.
