The small, charming capital Argostoli of
Kefalonia Island has a long, well-tended harbor promenade. Behind the harbor promenade and the narrow streets is the town's main square, lined with taverns, cafes and small shops. Only 15 minutes drive from the airport and 45 minutes drive from the Sami ferry port. The nearest beach is 3.5 km away. We recommend a rental car to explore the diverse beach landscapes of
Kefalonia. The Hotel
Kefalonia Grand is located directly at the natural harbor Argostoli with numerous cafes and restaurants.
The city of Argostoli was rebuilt after the catastrophic earthquake of 1953. It is a picturesque town built on the hills surrounding the Koutavos lagoon and the natural harbor formed there. The modern and cosmopolitan city of Argostoli is busy during the summer season. A wealth of interesting attractions and activities / boat tours are available.
