Foki

Following the seaside main road of Fiscardo and after passing two beautiful small bays we arrive at one of the most beautiful beaches of Cephalonia Foki. It consists of a very long bay like a fiord with pine and olive trees reaching the coast. The sea bottom is shallow between 5-15m. following the small coastal path to the east we arrive at a very beautiful seaside cave inside which there is a very beautiful small sandy beach.

Emblisi

Emblisi is probably the most cosmopolitan swimming beach in N. Cephalonia, since it is very beautiful and is at a distance of only 1.5Km from Fiscardo. It is a bay protected from the winds and it consists of white pebbles. It is surrounded by aged pine and olive trees providing natural shadow to the swimmers.

KIMILIA

Kimilia is a virgin beach with crystal waters and cypresses and is consider as one of the most beautiful small beaches in Cephalonia. The easiest way to go is by car , take the main road out of Fiscardo and you will see a sign pointing towards to Kimilia beach and at the end of the road you will find a path walk 500m through a cypress forest/ Alternatively you can hire a boat and the beach is just one mile from the port of Fiscardo.

DAFNOUDI

Dafnoudi beach is a hidden beach at the nothernmost tip of Cephalonia. Shade is limited when the sun is high so remember to take a beach umbrella. There is even a small and very cool cave at the waters edge. The beach is pebbly, the waters are calm and the colors vary from blue to green. The easiest way to go is by car or motorbike, take the main road out of Fiscardo as far as Antipata (the first village you come to), turn right at the taverna , and follow the road down. After 1.2 Km you will find a path walk 400m through a cypress forest and you will find the beach.

ALATIES

Alaties is a remote cove on the western coast. This name means “saltworks”, as sea salt used to be hand-harvested from the hollows in the rocks. The larger hollows were once used for healing baths. This perhaps explains the stepped landscaping of the terrain and the presence of pine trees. The beach is surrounded by rocks, making it a good spot for diving and snorkeling. There is a nearby Italian restaurant where you can enjoy lunch or, better yet a memorable sunset.

 

 

MYRTOS

18 Km south-west of Fiscardo lies Myrtos beach, the island’s landmark. It has consistently been voted one of the world’s top beaches and year after year is awarded the European “blue flag” from the Greek National Tourism Organisation. The contrasts between the white pebbles and the sea’s innumerable shades of blue under the shifting sunlight, or the dark green of the trees make this place magical. The view of the beach from the road above is breathtaking. And don’t forget: a view of the sunset from here is truly an unforgettable experience. The beach offers a full-range of facilities for day-long relaxation and fun.

Agia Sofia

22 Κm away from Fiscardo in Komitata village is located Agia Sophia, a pebble beach, with crystal clear waters. Olives and other trees reach to the sea and offer their shade generously to swimmers. Agia Sophia is not among the cosmopolitan beaches of Cephalonia. It is one of those that the visitor seeks when looking calm and serenity, when he wants to enjoy the sea and its cool, but also a few hours under the hot sun.Next to Agia Sophia, there is a beach named Chorgota  where were filmed some of the most beautiful scenes of the film “Captain Corelli’s Mandolin”, in 2000.
