I'm considering a trip to Kefalonia and I’m curious if it's a good destination for outdoor sports and activities. I’m an active traveler who loves things like hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, and exploring nature, so I’m looking for a place that offers plenty of opportunities to stay active while enjoying beautiful scenery.

Does Kefalonia have good hiking trails or places to go mountain biking? How about water sports like snorkeling, diving, or sea kayaking? I’ve heard the island has some incredible beaches and natural landscapes, but I’m wondering if there are organized activities or tours that cater to outdoor enthusiasts.

Also, if anyone has tips on the best spots or specific companies that offer these kinds of activities, I’d really appreciate your recommendations! Looking forward to hearing your experiences and advice.

Sea kayaking is popular around the island’s beautiful coastlines, especially near Myrtos Beach and Fiskardo, where you can explore hidden caves and coves.
