With over 60 beaches, green forests and a beautiful geo park, Kefalonia is ideal for outdoor activities. Much of the island is covered with olive groves and hills perfect for hiking and mountain biking and the coast is dotted with cliffs and coves just waiting to be explored by kayak, SUP or with a snorkelling mask. The diverse natural landscape of the island invites you to relax but also to have fun with sports activities for all tastes, adrenaline-filled for the more adventurous, more calm and fun for families with children. We have selected for you 10 sports activities not to be missed in Kefalonia but we invite you to consult our website for offers and updated programmes for each season!
Did you know that Kefalonia is a natural paradise not only for those who come on holiday but also for the many animal and plant species that populate it? In addition to us, noisy human beings, and the famous Caretta Caretta turtles, the island is home to many species with a more discreet presence such as monk seals, dolphins, wild horses, falcons and many, many colourful insects. A short walk in the greenery (or sometimes, just a snack on the beach) is enough to enter a fascinating microcosm that is always on the move!
