Taking the whole family to Kefalonia?

[blopez34]

I’m planning a family trip to Kefalonia and would love some advice on how to make the most of our time there. We're traveling with kids, so I’m particularly interested in family-friendly activities, beaches that are safe and fun for children, and any must-see sights that would appeal to both adults and kids.

Are there any specific areas or villages you’d recommend staying in for easy access to these activities? Also, tips on local restaurants that are great for families would be awesome!

We’re excited to explore this beautiful island and want to make sure it’s a memorable experience for everyone. Looking forward to your suggestions!

Kefalonia is a fantastic choice for a family trip! For a memorable experience, consider staying in Argostoli or Lassi. These areas offer easy access to some of the island’s best family-friendly beaches like Makris Gialos, known for its golden sand and shallow waters, perfect for kids to splash around safely.

Be sure to visit Melissani Cave, where a boat ride through the crystal-clear waters will captivate both kids and adults alike. The Ainos National Park is also great for a family hike, offering stunning views and a chance to see wild ponies.

For dining, try Kiani Akti in Argostoli, which offers a great menu for all ages and a stunning sea view. Also, don't miss out on enjoying fresh seafood at Taverna Karavomylos in Sami—a hit with both locals and visitors.
