Assos, Kefalonia. Greece.
Located on a stunning peninsula on the North West coast of Kefalonia, Assos is a beautifully undiscovered resort. With a transfer time of just over an hour from Kefalonia’s only airport, it’s easy to reach.
If you’re planning a holiday to Assos, prepare for a laid-back, slow pace of life, where fragrant olive trees and sparkling turquoise waters make for stunning scenery. Set on a hillside, the picture-postcard village boasts to be a tranquil setting for your perfect Greek island holiday.
Lazy days can be spent on the small shingle beaches, soaking up the sun or swimming in the crystal clear water. Join the locals in beachside tavernas and enjoy a cool drink and a homemade tasty snack. Assos is close-by to the fabulous Myrtos Beach – the most photographed beach in Greece. Whatever you do, do not miss a trip here; it’s definitely worth the steep cliff side walk down!
While in Assos be sure to hike up the hill and visit the old Venetian Fortress, where ancient history can be admired and magnificent panoramic views stretch as far as the eye can see.
Unlike some other seaside resorts, Assos is completely unspoilt and is untouched by tourism. You won’t therefore find water sports lining the beach or lively bars serving cocktails. In the evenings head to the wonderful fishing village of Fiskardo, where the atmosphere is more vibrant.
Staying in Assos means quaint little guesthouses and apartments, so you can expect a stress free holiday of the ultimate relaxation. Staying in Assos also means that you’re only a short drive from the ethereal Melissani Cave. A magical blue lake set deep in an underground cave, with just one opening to the sunlight splashing through, provides a fantastic day trip for everyone to enjoy.
