5. Getting Around Kefalonia
Kefalonia is a large island with many attractions spread across remote areas, and public transport is limited. The easiest and most flexible way to explore is by renting a car, as it allows you to reach hidden beaches, traditional villages, and scenic viewpoints at your own pace. Taxis are available but can be costly for longer trips, while scooters and quad bikes can be an option for shorter distances in the summer months.
6. Food and Shopping

You’ll find plenty of traditional tavernas serving fresh seafood and Greek specialities.

For groceries, there is a Lidl on the island, as well as several local supermarket chains. Most towns also have small bakeries and local markets where you can buy fresh produce.

When it comes to shopping, consider visiting local jewellery stores — prices are often lower than in major European cities. Plus, if you are not from the European Union, you may also be eligible for a Tax Refund.

7. Planning Your Trip
Book early for peak summer months, especially if you have specific dates or villa types in mind. Consider visiting in May, June, September, or early October for fewer crowds and better rates.
