Greece - Kefalonia
As the biggest of the Ionian islands, Kefalonia is a must-see Greek holiday destination.
You’ll be rewarded with rich sapphire-coloured waters, iconic beaches, intriguing caves, remote monasteries, the aroma of oleanders, and… much, much more.
Kefalonia – Top yacht charter destination
Characterised by an indented coastline, limestone cliffs, sandy coves and strips of white sand, Kefalonia is tailormade for an idyllic yachting vacation itinerary.
Many beaches are only accessible on foot or via narrow twisting roads — and, of course, by yacht. There is no shortage of convenient and scenic anchorages, which will open the door to the charms of this Ionian paradise.
Kefalonia – Things to Do
Tap into your inner thrill-seeker and explore Mount Aenos. Its wild habitat will quickly help you shake off the shackles of stressful city life.
As the only national park situated on a Greek Island, and with an elevation of 5000 feet, you’ll feel like you’re walking on clouds. Admire the exquisite Greek fir and black pine forests and coastal views that stretch on forever.
The rebuilt capital, Argostoli — destroyed in an earthquake in the 1950s — lacks some of the atmospheric charm of older Greek island villages but it more than makes up for it with its bustling shops, cafes, tavernas and working harbour.
The tiled waterfront promenade, the pedestrian Drapano bridge, the fascinating caretta-caretta turtles feeding at the nearby Koutavos Lagoon… all contribute to making Argostoli a truly enjoyable town in which to wile away the hours.
History aficionados can visit the Focas Kosmetatos Foundation, a small museum dedicated to the social and cultural history of Kefalonia housed in one of the few buildings that survived the earthquake. There is also an Archaeological Museum, which was built after the earthquake.
Don’t miss out either on the Melissani and Drogarati caves.
Kefalonia – The Gourmet Experience
Of course being a modern town, Argostoli has a collection of some top-notch restaurants and tavernas, suiting the most discerning palate. And on the island as a whole, there is a staggering array of fine-dining venues and authentic Greek and Mediterranean eateries.
Try the Katavothres Club Restaurant in Argostoli for its spinach pies, cured steaks, squid dishes and strawberry salads. The Olive Lounge, in Lourdas in the south, also serves scrumptious cuisine, as does the Apostolis Taverna, in Skala in the south-east.
Kefalonia — The Nightlife
The centre of Argostoli consist of a large square, the Platia Vallianou, which buzzes with cafes and bars. If you continue up north to the pedestrianised Leoforos Vassileos Giorgiou V (King George V Ave), there are also plenty of bars, cocktail lounges and nightclubs.
Recommended options include Le Sapin Noir, Baroque Le Bistrot, Katavothres Club-Restaurant, Bee's Knees The Bar, Bass Club.
Insider tip Many yachting vacationers gather in Fiskardo, Kefalonia’s most northern port. This village miraculously survived the 1953 earthquake, so you can admire its exquisite Venetian buildings dating back to the 18th century while mingling with a cosmopolitan, well-travelled group of like-minded people.

Overview for yacht " ALOIA "
A luxury catamaran to widen your perspectives, to heighten your emotion and to share what truly moves you.
Alegria, like joy.
The joy of living by the sea aboard a luxury residence, the joy of enjoying a huge 37 m2 flybridge, a 39 m2 lounge and its jacuzzi, the joy of lying on one of the sofas or perhaps one of the countless sunbaths nestled on the boat, the joy of feeling the wind on your skin or vibrating at the majestic maneuvers of the Alegria 67. This catamaran yacht , equipped with a Performance rig, transports you from sensation to emotion to become the source of unforgettable memories. The spirit flies away like a terrace overlooking the sea, takes its ease in the private lounges or has fun in mischievous games on its beach club.
A style that reflects the latest trends ….
Aesthetics is the harmony between the inside and the outside, your feeling of serenity and the comfort of the boat’s volumes. The elegance of the lines is like a welcome reserved for you, a call to feel good, an invitation to relax. Recharge your batteries by escaping as far as the horizon, from the square that offers you a 360-degree view. The style, transparency and lightness of the Alegria 67 make navigation an immaterial experience that encourages
The Alegria 67 is available in a kitchen version in the corridor or admirably integrated into the saloon, combining the pleasures of the sea with those of a gastronomic moment skillfully composed by the genius of a chef in the dining room. You surrender yourself to the treasures of Domains discovered at the bend of a stopover on land, and enjoy a bouquet of flavors magnified by the sea.
Whether you have chosen the Alegria 67 in its kitchen version in the corridor, or integrated magnificently into the saloon, like a starred restaurant, to enjoy the magic of the chef in the dining room, you will experience unforgettable culinary moments: the flavor of the dishes combined with that of the tasting of exquisite wines can be discovered during a stopover, refreshments, cocktails with friends before leaving for dinner on land…
Choose the version that suits you best.
The Owner’s version, which has an exceptional suite of 22 m2 in the starboard side, with direct access to the front saloon and jacuzzi if you wish; the Lounge version, with the kitchen designed in the passageway and the saloon dedicated to dining or relaxation, or finally, the option favoring the layout of bespoke areas with numerous cabins with bathroom and crew area.

Yacht options
We have a great range of yachts available to suit you and your budget. It’s our own small fleet of 7 yachts, well maintained and immaculately presented on arrival with a yacht and safety briefing and a handy starter pack to get you going.
An example itinerary
1 week long itineraries to explore the beautiful central and southern Ionian islands from our yacht base in Kefalonia.
Minimal mooring fees along the way (10-20 euros per week).
Sheltered line-of-sight sailing and an easy itinerary with short island-hopping distances make this cruising area perfect for those looking for a less demanding sailing holiday. An abundance of stunningly clear water inlets, protected bays to anchor in and quaint harbour towns to explore.
Example route
The Central Ionian Flotilla starts and finishes in Sami, Kefalonia. A classic 1 week route exploring numerous islands, anchorages and harbours. Most legs are short with the opportunity to anchor for lunch along the way and grab a peaceful night on anchor (weather permitting). Loads to see, places to eat, drink and swim.
Arrival Day
- Transfer time from the airport to our yacht base in SAMI is about 1 hour. Our yachts are ready for boarding at 3pm on arrival day. Our team will be on the quayside to meet you. After a short briefing about living on board, safety and the local town you’ll be left to relax and sort your things out. You have the option of going to the local beach, a nearby swimming pool or just relaxing on the boat. Everything begins the next morning at about 10am.
Day 1 (12NM):
- We’re northbound with a short hop up the strait between Kefalonia and Ithaca. It’s the first day on the water and we spend time practising mooring techniques and boat familiarisation.
- Our destination is Polis Bay , a stunning, secluded bay on the North West corner of Ithaca. After mooring up on long lines, there’s a walk to the nearby taverna and some stunning views of the bay.
Day 2 (12NM):
- We continue North and sail up to Sivota on the south-east coast of Lefkas island. Verdant hillsides join seamlessly with rocky coves and sandy bays to create a picture postcard setting. The harbour is beautiful, with a small flotilla of colourful local fishing boats found lining the shore. Shops, tavernas, cafes and mini markets are all close by.
Day 3 (16nm):
- Kalamos is probably our favourite little place in the Ionian. Honestly, time has stood still here. An abundance of bays to anchor in along the way, perfect for snorkelling and exploring. Stern to on the quay if there’s space, if not a long line ashore. Grab a beer and watch the yachts coming in with the brilliant harbour master “George” taking charge!
Day 4 (14nm):
- A really easy day today. A short sail around Kalamos and then head North West, towards the captivating little harbour of Vathi on Meganisi island . Pastel-coloured houses huddle on the clifftop overlooking the deep blue bay below – where you happen to be moored up. Wander around the old harbour and village and discover another world and some brilliant tavernas. Great swimming, great food and quite simply heaven on earth. You’ll never want to leave here.
Day 5 (24nm):
- We head South today, sailing from one Vathi to another: Vathi Ithaca – the home of Odysseus in Greek mythology. Once in Vathi, there is plenty to see with a gorgeous harbourfront area to explore.
Day 6 (18nm):
- The last leg of our flotilla today as we return back to Sami with a nice easy run past the southern tip of Ithaca. If there is time on route, Antisamos beach is well worth a stop.
- Check out is by 10am the following morning. Our local team can assist with arranging onward travel.
Qualifications required
What qualifications do i need.
To charter a yacht in Greece as part of a flotilla or independently you will need a qualified skipper on board, and a competent crew member. The ICC ( International Certificate of Competence ) is probably the best ticket to have as it is widely recognised by the authorities here on the islands. This, or the Day Skipper practical certificates are the minimum required.
Feeling a bit rusty?
Many of our guests sometimes feel their skills aren’t quite ship-shape when they arrive for their yacht charter. There is the opportunity to practise your mooring skills under the guidance of our brilliant flotilla crew (subject to staff availability)
Skipper on Board
If you think you would like some further assistance for your first day of sailing, then an instructor can join you on board for the day and help you ease into the sailing.
Skipper on board is £165 per day (subject to staff availability)
Experience the Sailing… and the food!
You’ll experience some amazing Greek food whilst on a yacht charter, from classic Greek kitchen dishes cooked by local chefs, seasonal salads, mind-blowing tomatoes and freshly grilled sardines, pork chops and club sandwiches – the food in Kefalonia and the other Ionian Islands on a flotilla holiday is delicious and very reasonably priced.
When it comes to wine, there are 48 varieties of grape grown locally and some very fine internationally recognised wines to try, along with some fantastic Hellenic beers, there’s plenty to enjoy.
Wander along from your mooring and you’ll be sure to find coffee and fresh pastries for breakfast, plus pop into one of the great little mini-markets to stock up your yacht fridge for some lunchtime treats on anchor somewhere.
Both our yacht bases in Sami and in Lixouri have an excellent selection of mini-markets, bakeries and other shops available for buying provisions at the start of your flotilla week. If you happen to be in Lixouri, be sure to pay a visit to I-Scream Ice cream parlour on the left-hand side of the town square – you won’t be disappointed!
Evening Meals
Part of the joy of Flotilla Sailing is sitting down to a Greek feast at the end of a fantastic day of sailing. For the first evening, we arrange a group meal at a local restaurant (not included in the holiday price) and then for the rest of the evenings, the choice is yours.
Whether you’re moored at anchor and rowing to shore to a beachside taverna or simply stepping onto the harbourside, your Flotilla Skipper and 1st Mate will let you know the best options for where to eat. In the busier harbours, there’ll be many fantastic options to choose from. In the quieter locations, it might be just one or two.
For some of our harbour stops, there will be the option of a complimentary mooring for dining in a particular restaurant, but you are still free to eat where you like!
In the local area
Here are some options to check out in the local area:
- A sunset meal at one of the best beaches in the Greek islands is also a must. Petani beach and taverna “Erasmia“. Only a 15 – 20 minute taxi ride from the club this place is incredible – get there early for a swim and settle down for a wonderful eating experience.
- Head into town and Lixouri square, 5 – 10 minutes in a taxi from the club (1 taxi for 4 people is ~€10 one way). A wonderful place to watch the world go by with countless cafes, tavernas and bars. Whatever you do, don’t miss the best ice cream in the world at “I-Scream” – it’s divine and we love it!
Getting there
Our yacht base in Sami is quick and easy to get to, with a reasonable flight time of 3hrs from the UK and many regional departure airport options direct to Kefalonia airport. The transfer is approximately 60 minutes.
Thursday changeover day

Along each side of the yacht-building facility, space is available for long-term sub-contractors with the latest equipment and logistics capabilities, along with air-conditioned storage, ventilation and extraction plants.
