Discover Assos Village

From the port of Argostoli, enjoy one of the most beautiful driving routes in Kefalonia which leads to the Assos peninsula and Myrtos Bay on the northern part of the island. On the north-west coast of Kefalonia, Assos is perched at the foot of a hill on a small peninsula. It is surrounded on three sides by the stunning blue Mediterranean Sea. A ruined 16th-century castle that was built high on the peninsula by the Venetians, looks out over the village, which is almost hidden in a thick pine forest surrounded by tall cypress trees. Continue along the coast, as you depart Assos and you will have a photo opportunity above Myrtos Beach. The Kefalonian cliffs are illuminated with a stunning clarity that highlights the snow-white arc of the beach against every shade of blue and turquoise from the sea. Exiting Myrtos Beach, our destination is the magnificent Drogarati Cave, which is nearly 200 feet below the surface. This magnificent two million-year-old cavern was discovered 300 years ago when an earthquake exposed the entrance. It has stunning rock formations enhanced by hidden lighting and a magnificent hall called "Sala of Apotheosis." Final stop of the tour, is the Robola Winery to learn about how the famous and rare Robola wine, is made from local grapes and comes in red, white, and sweet Muscat.
