Things To Do
Explore Melissani Cave

Drive approximately 30-minutes to Sami where there’s an incredible adventure waiting for you — a boat ride through labyrinthine caverns! Imagine cruising through these caves, where sunlight peeks through and illuminates the whole place, making it look like something out of a fantasy movie. You'll see all these unique rock formations and it's just mesmerising. Make sure you bring a camera with low-light capabilities, because you'll want to capture every moment of this surreal experience. Trust us, the reflections and play of light on the water are stunning. And here's a tip, try to get there early in the day to avoid the crowds. That way, you can fully soak in the serene atmosphere and have the place all to yourself for a while. It's like having your own private paradise!

Palate Party

Grab your hungry gang and check out the tavernas along Lassi's main street; they're a foodie's dream come true! Stroll down the street and surround yourself with the tantalising aroma of grilled meats and savoury spices. The vibe is so inviting and cosy with the food—it's out of this world. From mouthwatering moussaka to succulent souvlaki skewers, each dish is bursting with flavour. Plus, the seafood options are top-notch, with the catch of the day cooked to perfection. The best part of dining at these tavernas is the view. Just a stone's throw away from the coastline, you'll have front-row seats to some of the most spectacular sunsets you've ever seen.

Experience Beach Thrills

If you're up for some adventure, you've got to try water sports at Makris Yialos Beach. It's seriously epic! There's an awesome water sports centre right next to the Stavento Beach Bar, where you can get your adrenaline fix. Whether it's jet skis or waterskies, and more—you name it, they've got it. And the best part? They offer lessons for beginners, so even if you're new to the game, you can still join in on the fun. But if that's not your thing, no worries. You can always rent a pedalo and cruise around at your own pace. It's a great way to soak up the sun and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Here's a little tip from us: If you're into snorkelling, head over to Gradakia Beach. It's nearby and known for its awesome snorkelling spots. You might even spot some clownfish or loggerhead turtles—how cool is that?

Discover Katavothres Sea Mills 

You've got to check out the Katavothres Sea Mills; they're seriously mind-blowing! These ancient mills are like a natural wonder of the world, located just outside Argostoli. Here's the crazy part: the seawater disappears into these mysterious holes and then magically reappears later on in Melissani Lake, about 15 kilometres away. It's like something out of a movie! After exploring the phenomenon, relax at the nearby café. It's the perfect place to ponder the mystery over a coffee or snack. And don't forget your camera—the views here are jaw-dropping, and you'll definitely want to capture the moment! Want to adventure more? Make a day trip by exploring sights near the coast. Take a leisurely stroll on the nearby trails, which offer stunning views of the rugged coastline and crystal-clear waters. It's a great way to soak in the natural beauty of the area and get some fresh air.

Party Greek Style

Want to have a blast? Hop in the car and head to Fragata; it's just a 20-minute drive away! And be part of the Rombola Festival that goes down here; it's a party you don't want to miss! This festival is like a big ol' celebration of everything awesome about Kefalonian culture and food. It's been rockin' since '78, and it's all about showing off the amazing local produce. You'll be surrounded by mouthwatering dishes like roasted goat and feta cheese, and wine. But here's the deal: it's not just about stuffing your face, there's going to be lively dance troupes to keep you groovin' all night long.
