Travel to Kefalonia in May?

[nm1999]

I plan to go to Greece at the end of April leading up to Orthodox Easter, which is at the beginning of May.

I will spend Holy Week and Easter near Athens.

Then, I would love to visit another place. I am considering Kefalonia. Is early May a good time of year to go to Kefalonia?

I have heard of some people spending Paska at a monastery, but I am honestly not sure how that works. Also, I would consider going to a place where you know some people so that you can experience a traditional family-oriented Paska. I am not sure that matters, though, as there will be things going on all over Greece. There are a lot of churches in Greece, but not all of them will be open - I think this requires some advance planning.
