If you get tired of lounging by the pool, the beautiful and unspoilt Dafnoudi Beach is only a short walk away. Enjoy the calm waters, and explore the hidden cave. If you're lucky, you might even catch sight of a monk seal! The species view Dafnoudi as somewhat of a haven.
Although one of the largest settlements in northwestern Kefalonia, Antipata is still a charming, rural village with scenic views and romantic sunsets. On the main road one can find a smattering of traditional little taverns and modern cafes for drinks and typical Greek cuisine. The local church of The Virgin Mary is also worth a visit - built in the shape of a cross, with a distinctive Russian dome, betraying its Roman Orthodox beginnings, it is both unique and imposing.
The island of Kefalonia is famous for its rugged terrain and sandy, deserted beaches. Take a boat tour of the eerily beautiful Mellisani Cave or immerse yourself in nature by walking one of Mount Ainos' many trails.
