InselTrip Kefalonia

Kefaloniá, the small island paradise in western Greece, attracts visitors with its Mediterranean landscapes, rugged cliffs, romantic bays, and extensive sandy beaches. In spring, the island, with its carpets of colorful flowers, is an ideal hiking destination, and in summer, the beaches have a wonderful Caribbean flair. In the interior of the island, churches and monasteries, old fortifications, and ghost villages are waiting to be explored. Waterfalls and cave lakes also promise a refreshing escape from the beach, and in the mysterious Melissáni Cave, you can admire stalagmites and stalactites from a boat.
