Holidays for couples in Kefalonia

Best activities in Kefalonia for couples

Kefalonia offers a wide range of activities to spice up the romance in the air during your couples' holiday. Spend the day lazing in the sun on one of Kefalonia's magnificent beaches. Each of Kefalonia's beaches respects its natural environment, from Myrtos beach, a copy of Navagio Bay in Zakynthos, to the mustard-orange sands of Xi beach, each exudes a unique charm and offers plenty of water sports and beach facilities. If you want to impress your partner, we recommend exploring the Melissani cave. Located in the village of Sami, this is an underground lake cave whose sapphire-blue waters reflect the light from an open-air section of the cave, creating a magical glow. It's best to book a guided tour to find out how Mother Nature created this natural wonder. We recommend visiting the cave around mid-afternoon.

Most romantic destinations in Kefalonia

Oozing charm, the traditional village of Assos looks like something straight out of a Disney film. An idyllic destination for couples! Backed by mountain valleys and a Venetian fortress, its fishing village boasts a crescent-shaped harbour with mint-green waters and cosy tavernas. Its name comes from the Doric version of the Greek word Nisos, meaning 'island'. Assos Castle is a piece of Venetian history and the main attraction, dating from the 13th to 18th centuries. The best way to explore this magical jewel in the Ionian Sea is by sea. Hire a boat from Conteco Boat Service at the pier and admire the natural beauty of this isolated peninsula.
