Kefalonia

Kefalonia is one of the most stunning and authentic Ionian islands, known for its dramatic landscapes, lush mountains, breathtaking beaches, and rich culture. From the iconic Myrtos Beach to the magical Melissani Cave, there’s so much to see—but due to the island’s size and terrain, renting a car is almost essential. With a Sync vehicle, you can plan your vacation your way, without relying on rare bus routes or long, expensive taxi rides.

Where you stay depends on the kind of trip you want. Argostoli is lively, central, and full of dining and beach options. Skala is great for a quieter, more relaxed seaside vibe, while Assos and Agia Efimia offer romance and charm. With your Sync rental, you can stay wherever you feel most comfortable and still explore every part of the island easily.

Kefalonia is full of diverse scenery and hidden gems. From the pastel harbor of Fiskardo with its Venetian architecture to remote inland villages like Poros or Eleios, each drive brings something new. With Sync, you can enjoy scenic coastal roads, pull over at family-run tavernas, and take spontaneous swims in secret coves not marked on tourist maps.

The island isn’t just about beaches. The Castle of Saint George, the Monastery of Saint Gerasimos, hiking trails on Mount Ainos, and local wineries producing Robola wine offer a deeper look at Kefalonia’s culture and nature. With Sync, all these highlights become part of your itinerary—no stress, no rush, just authentic exploration.

What are the most stunning places to visit in Kefalonia?
Melissani Cave with its underground lake is breathtaking, especially at midday when sunlight enters the chamber. Fiskardo charms with its colorful houses and scenic marina. Don’t miss Assos village, Saint Gerasimos Monastery, and the iconic Myrtos Beach with its dramatic cliffs and turquoise water.
Which beaches are must-visit in Kefalonia?
Myrtos, Makris and Platis Gialos, Petani, and Antisamos are some of the most spectacular. Many of them are easier to reach—and far more enjoyable—with your own vehicle, especially if you want to go early or stay through sunset.
Where can I try traditional food in Kefalonia?
Try the island’s famous meat pie (kreatopita), bakaliaros with garlic dip, and the local Robola wine. In Argostoli, Lixouri, and mountain villages, you’ll find cozy tavernas serving authentic dishes. For dessert, look for mandolato and pasteli made with local honey and almonds.
