Incredible sights to explore

So many treasures, so much diversity—it’s all waiting for you in Kefalonia!

KEFALONIA

Sea Turtles – Dolphins – Seals

Kefalonia is one of the places in the Mediterranean where Careta-Careta turtles breed on beaches. There are organizations that help in protecting and fostering this. It is so touching to see a Careta-Careta swimming beside you!  

Mainly on the beaches of Northern Kefalonia (Foki, Emblisi, Dafnoudi) but also in the bay of Argostoli, the unique seals Monachus-Monachus find shelter.

In every trip with a big boat or a trawler, unique companions the Dolphins. Unforgettable moments….
