Excursions beyond Kefalonia

Kefalonia is the largest of the Ionian Islands and has the highest mountain too! Even though I believe that combines all the beauties of all the other Ionian islands, I still believe that if you decide to spend your holidays in this part of Greece, you should allow a few more days to discover the gems of all our neighbouring Islands.

Island Hopping, a private charter cruise or just separate trips to the other islands is recommended that is why I will try in this section to slowly add short guides to each one of them.

I am adding here too some other interesting destinations on the mainland that can be combined with your next trip and give you all the info on how to travel between them.

Enjoy my best destinations outside Kefalonia!
