Airport Car Rental
The largest of the Greek Ionian islands to the west of the country’s mainland, Kefalonia is a beloved tourist destination. Also called by its Italian name Cefalonia due to its Venetian heritage, the island is known for its long, beautiful coastline, scenic caves, and historic sites. These are three of Kefalonia’s most interesting attractions:
- Caves. Kefalonia is home to not one, but two of Greece’s most notable caves, Melissani and Drogarati. Notable for their deep and azure waters, the caves are near the island’s eastern coast and just 6 km (3.7 miles) from each other. The car trip from Argostoli, the main settlement on Kefalonia, takes about 30 minutes.
- Beaches. Kefalonia’s number one attraction is its beautiful beaches and with a coastline of 254 km (158 miles), there’s plenty to choose from. Highlights include the popular Myrtos Beach on the northwestern coast which is known for its spectacular natural setting, Antisamos Beach in the east which is surrounded by a beautiful forest, and the relaxed Trapezaki Beach in the southwest.
- Monasteries. The Ionian islands are home to many ancient Greek Orthodox monasteries and churches, and some of the most notable ones can be found on Kefalonia. These include the Sacred Monastery of Agios Gerasimos which is named after the island’s patron saint, the church of Panagia Lagouvarda, and the Kipouria Monastery. Many of the monasteries and churches are located in the central part of the island, so going to visit them is also a good way to explore the lesser-visited inland areas of Kefalonia.

Roads are relatively good, they were quiet in late September, wider than a lot of Greek islands and towns were easy to drive through and park in (although we did skip argostoli!).
