Ionian Islands

Best Beaches in Kefalonia

Myrtos

For the scenery, the color, and the classic Ionian vibe. Note that it's worth stopping at the viewpoint first.

Antisamos

Near Sami, for a breathtaking gulf setting, crystal-clear waters, and easy combination with the nearby Melissani cave.

Xi (Paliki)

The 'orange' beach with clay. The red hue comes from weathered clay minerals. You can apply the natural clay.

Petani & Western Bays

If you chase sunsets by the beach, the western side of the island offers incredible golden hours and majestic cliffs.
