The largest of all Ionian Islands, Kefalonia enjoys a number of
different spellings,which include Kefallonia, Kefallinia and even Cephallonia.
However you choose to spell or pronounce these variations of Kefalonia,
they all mean one thing, a superb holiday destination, with a rugged inner
mountain range. Kefalonia island is rugged and high, with mountain Ainos
dominating the landscape. Sheer cliffs and turquoise seas add to the
dramatic beauty, along with undoubtedly some of the best views and
beaches in the region.
Recent discoveries on the Paliki peninsular indicate that Kefalonia may well
be Odysseus' kingdom of Ithaka, and undoubtedly this will spark further
interest in tourism to the island.
Motorbike renting is definitely recommended to discover the diversity
of kefalonia and to really explore and appreciate its landscape, sights
and attractions.
Kefalonia has seen new tourist development over the last few years
and some quite outstanding beaches and cliffs, and even some remains
of a past Roman civilisation.
