ARGOSTOLI SHORE EXCURSIONS

Walk through the impressive chambers of Drogarati Cave

Enjoy a boat ride on Melissani Lake, known for its clear waters

Capture beautiful photos from a viewpoint overlooking Myrtos Beach

Explore two of Kefalonia’s most impressive natural landmarks on this geological-focused experience.

Begin with a visit to Drogarati Cave, known for its remarkable stalactite and stalagmite formations shaped over millions of years. Walk through its spacious chambers and observe the cave’s naturally resonant acoustics and atmospheric environment.

Continue to Melissani Lake, where you will board a small boat and glide across the crystal-clear waters of this underground lake. Sunlight entering through the open roof creates striking reflections that illuminate the interior, offering a unique perspective of Kefalonia’s subterranean landscape.

The tour concludes with a scenic photo stop overlooking Myrtos Beach, one of the island’s most photographed coastlines. Capture its dramatic cliffs and turquoise water before returning.
