Assos

Assos is a picturesque village on the northwest coast of Kefalonia, nestled on a narrow isthmus beneath the ruins of a 16th-century Venetian castle.

Surrounded by pine-covered hills and turquoise waters, the village is known for its colourful houses, quaint harbour, and peaceful charm. Assos offers a tranquil escape, with small pebble beaches, cosy tavernas, and breath taking sunsets. The scenic walk to the castle provides stunning views of the Ionian Sea.

Unlike more touristy spots, Assos maintains a traditional Greek atmosphere, making it ideal for those seeking serenity, natural beauty, and a glimpse into Kefalonia’s rich cultural and historical past.
