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.

Amazing place with a gloomy feel. The abandon village is worth a visit and had great photography opportunities and knowing the history of the village makes you appropriate the atmosphere of the place.

I really enjoyed my visit here, even though the Monastery was closed. I was the only person there. A really beautiful building in a magnificent setting!

Our first visit to Assos was in 1992,way before all the rebuilding work and new villas were erected but even then with only a couple of Tavernas and most of the village still in ruins we both fell in love with it, unfortunately very little if any accommodation was available in those days so we would find rooms as near to Assos as possible.We think the village is head and shoulders above most of the resorts on Kefalonia thats if you really want to chill out in this beautiful scenic little village with its lovely bay and the old castle ruins high above the village. Dont come looking for discos or lots of bars, this is a peaceful little base from where you can explore the rest of the island

Not to busy / not to quiet. Ideal for the beach holiday with enough Tavernas with dinning on the waters edge in the evening

Well worth taking a look at this lighthouse,the views from this lighthouse are panoramic across the sea.The sea is so clear around the lighthouse and a stones throw away people swim.

Every evening our stay in Kefalonia we were here.It is charming pedestrian zone,packed with shops and cafes.The pedestrian zone extends from the square( which is perfect place for children in the evening,to run,to ride bicycles..). You should know that there are no working shops between 2 pm and 5 pm. The square is very nice,huge and paved with stone,big free space for children,and parents could sit near in cafe gardens ,or hotel gardens..There are also outdoor shows and festivals. Museums are also nearby(Folklore Museum,Archaeological Museum ...) I especially liked the library,owns over 50 000 books,beautiful building.

Despite some negative reviews, this is a must, easy to find and opening hours are clearly displayed, detail in the mosaics are amazing, if it was in the UK you would have to pay to see this! You don’t need to stay long as it’s not huge but a must if you have an hour or so to spare
