If you're after a picturesque scene, to lie next to the sea on a pebbly beach, with hardly any stretching space between you and the sunbed next to you, then Antisamos is for you. It attracts visitors because a scene from Capt Correlli's Mandolin was filmed there. Didn't impress me.
A very nice place. First take some shots from the above of the sparkling water and then roll down to the cafe, have a breakfast or tea (tsai) and stay for the day. One of the most beautiful beaches on Earth, no doubt. And family friendly, too. Prepare yourself for a breathtaking nature beauty.
I can honestly say this was my favourite beach ever! It's perfect for all ages and there are two fabulous restaurants on the beach which both do an amazing chicken souvlaki! The sea is beautifully clear and we thoroughly enjoyed kefalonia!
This is one of the most beautiful beaches in Kefalonia, for sure. We went there mid October and were lucky it was warm (26 degrees). The beach was very quiet, just my husband and I, pebbles and very blue and clear sea. Very very calm water and no service on that day (Saturday) Downside: way too many spiders. They fly with their webs all over the place even above the water. As I suffer from arachnophobia :( we didn't stay there longer than 10 minutes..
The water was warm and clear, and being late in the season was not at all crowded.The sun beds were free and plenty of parking space behind the two bars, who did beach service.Ok, the beach is stones and not sand and you need a car to get to it but a relly nice location.We would have probably returned here later in the holiday but ran out of days.
Beautiful turquoise waters tucked into mountain cliffs. We had a great time relaxing here. As with most places on Kefallonia, there are animals in the background, although here they are fenced in- goats, cows, sheep- adding to the ambience.
The beach is lovely. You only 2 a couple of steps into the water and you are already up to your tip toes so be careful. Once you are in look down in the water and you will see fish swimming around you. They do not bite they are just inquisitive as to who you are. Once been you know that you will have to return
Free sunbeds and lovely tavernas on hand. This is a spectacular cove to visit and a hidden gem. Fascinating to see all the super yachts that come here to anchor up for the day.
We hadn't been to Kefalonia for 11 years, and we loved this beach for it's peace and quiet, However now there are two bars with music (no loud but a little intrusive) and sunbeds crammed together in two small areas - yes there is still plenty of (stony) beach for you to sunbathe on, but should we return to Kefalonia again we shan't be coming back here.
A stony beach but very nice. Much of the Captain Corelli film was done here and in Sami the nearest town. A sun trap.
