Cosmopolitan Kefalonia; the beautiful island of contrasts, dominates the Ionian complex. The forested peaks of Ainos, the luxuriant vegetation, the magnificent caves and the heavenly beaches, combined with the great archaeological sites, the imposing castles, the traditional villages and the picturesque fishing ports fully justify why Kefalonia is every year featured in the list of top summer destinations worldwide.

The capital and port of Kefalonia is noble Argostoli, unfolding in the southern part of the island, at the background of the homonymous bay. Beautiful squares, cobbled walkways and imposing neoclassical buildings are the main features of this city. Trademark of capital is the historic, stone Devosetou Bridge (De Bosset) which connects Argostoli with the opposite shore. The Bridge is ideal for romantic walks, especially in the evenings, overlooking the floodlit Argostoli. In the middle of the bridge, Kolona dominates; an impressive monument in small pyramid shape. Capital’s benchmark is the historic Kambana square, with palm trees and the characteristic clock tower. The heart of Argostoli beats in Lithostroto; the charming pedestrian street with many café/bars and shops. Major attractions in the capital are the Archaeological Museum, Korgialenio Historical and Folklore Museum, the Government House, the Courthouse, "Kefalos" Municipal Theatre of Argostoli and the Cosmetatos’ Mansion.
