The Southern Ionian Islands are the ideal place for those looking for a combination of natural beauty, historical heritage and exceptional hospitality.
Kefalonia
Kefalonia, the largest of the Southern Ionian Islands, is a place that will captivate you with its variety of natural wonders. Steep hills, covered with olive groves and vineyards, contrast with the endless blue of the sea and crystal clear beaches such as Myrtos and Anti-Sami. The island is also famous for its caves, incl. the impressive Melissani cave with its underground lake, which looks like something out of a fairy tale. For history lovers, Kefalonia also offers ancient fortresses, such as the Venetian fortress of Assos, which reveal its rich past. And last but not least, the hospitality of the locals will make you feel at home.
Ithaca
Ithaca is the place where mythology meets reality. Associated with the legend of Odysseus, this small but extremely beautiful island offers visitors its tranquility and aristocratic atmosphere. Ithaca is perfect for those seeking solitude and natural beauty. The island is also home to small traditional villages, and the many local taverns will offer you authentic Ionian dishes.
Meganisi
The bizarre shape of Meganisi manages to surprise us every time with new discoveries: caves, bays and fantastic rock formations create the illusion of being pioneers.
Kastos and Kalamos
Two islands that often remain in the shadow of their more famous counterparts, but which we love to visit precisely for this reason. Quiet harbors, wild beaches and perfect sailing conditions, under the “shadow” of mainland Greece, which protects us from the big waves.
Zakynthos
Zakynthos, the island of blue caves and crystal clear waters, is a true paradise for all those who seek the perfection of nature. Best known for its Navagio beach, which is located in a secluded bay and surrounded by steep white cliffs, the island attracts thousands of tourists every year. At the same time, Zakynthos also has a long history that can be discovered in the monasteries, churches and archaeological sites such as the ancient Temple of Dionysus and the Museum of Byzantine Art. Its picturesque villages and local gastronomy will make your experience even more unforgettable.
