The 10 Best Food & Drink in Cephalonia, Ionian Islands

October 4, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

The sapphire waters of Cephalonia are steeped with history. The large Greek island was home to Odysseus, the legendary king hailed in Homer’s The Odyssey. Fortunately, it won’t take you ten years to get there. Explore the enchanting caverns of the Drogarati caves, sail to Ithaca on a glass-bottomed boat or marvel at the ancient artifacts inside the Archaeological Museum of Argostoli, Cephalonia’s main town. Or just hide from it all at one of the island’s many private beach coves.

We had a wonderful tour from Panos, the owner at Sarris Winery. He walked us through the different stages of the wine making and about each of the wines he bottles. We sat and enjoyed the incredible views, delicious cheeses and some of the best Greek we’ve tasted with our friends and went home with the Rosé. Yamas! Highly recommend a visit and tour!
