  • Kefalonia - This is the best island in Greece!
    Kefalonia, situated to the west of mainland Greece, is an absolute standout destination to visit when travelling through Greece.
    The landscape of the island is unique and truly breathtaking, featuring some of the most dramatic coastlines in the Mediterranean, stunning azure beaches and picturesque villages with the friendliest locals!
    Arriving in Kefalonia has always been like a homecoming for me, having family roots on the island and where possible Sebastian and I try to return often.
    On this trip, we spent 7 days on the island visiting relatives and many of our favorite locations.
    Places featured in this travel vlog include:
    Petani beach
    Porto Atheras
    Lixouri
    Agia Effimia
    Sami
    St George Castle
    Agios Gerasimos Monastery
    Assos

    Greetings from America. I was on Kefalonia for two weeks in 2019, and I agree it is absolutely one of the most beautiful islands in Greece. And I say that as someone who has visited many of them.
    Have you guys ever heard of Karpathos? For me it is my #1 favorite island in all of Greece. The wild beauty and the authentic culture are incredible.

    • @FindingJeremyandSebastian
      @FindingJeremyandSebastian  Год назад +1

      Thanks for watching. Yes we have heard of Karpathos and would love to go there! Each time we travel to Greece, we try to cover new islands, so eventually we will get there too! We have only visited Kos and Rhodes in the dodecanese at this stage.

    Loved the video, very informative! I’ve only been to the Cyclades and I’m dying to explore the Ionian side. Kefalonia looks absolutely beautiful. I’ve read June and September are ideal months to go since there aren’t as many tourists. When did you guys go?

    Awesome informative video guys. I’m trying to decide which will be the first Greek island I’ll travel to out of Kefalonia, Alonissos, or Paxos (have you been to these islands?) I keep being drawn back to Kefalonia. It reminds of Sardegna (which is my fave in Italy). Oh and a like 👍🏼 re humidity is it humid or a dry heat in Kef?

      Generally the tourism season on the island starts from May. You will find a few shops/ restaurants will be open all year. The island has a reasonable all year population to sustain all year business.

    I believe that this beautiful island which looks more subtropical than Mediterranean is not over run by tourists . Mykonos is a joke and is too crowded in summer . You couldn’t swing a cat on Paradise beach . Kefalonia is the only Greek island I would visit and Sardinia Italy .

      We have been to Mirtos in the past, but generally, don't stop in Mirtos. It is often very busy and can be hard to get in and out of with the car. I would, however, recommend taking a picture from the lookout above and just going to Petani, which is a similar beach.
