put a spell on you as soon as you see
them
and keep you like a prisoner forever. Kefalonia is a place
like this.
Anyway you spell it, Kefalonia, Cephalonia, or Kefallinia,
Ulysses ancient kingdom had that rumor from these years
and still got it, even nowadays.
No other island can rival the
beauty of Kefalonia.
The visitor will be astonished from the variety of the
nature
and the unique
coexistence of the SEA and MOUNTAIN.
The imposing rock of Ainos, called
"Monte Nero" from the Venetians,
stands in the center of the island, offering a panoramic

and the surrounding islands of Ionian Sea.
The priceless jewel of the island
is the National Park with lots of animal and plant species
and the unique black fir tree forest. The lakes Melissani
and Akoli, the cave Drogaratti
and the endless picturesque seashores
like Myrtos combines
this coexistence.
