Very picturesque village, super tavernas right on the waterfront. Cool waters that are clear to swim in. You could even walk up to the castle ruins on the peninsula. Incredibly pretty village.

Just a very beautiful place to drive to and see the lush hillsides surrounding the beach. Crystal clear waters, great little place to have a snack right on the beach. Wonderful way to spend the day here and watch the sail boats and just relax.

Myrtos is one of the most popular beaches to view at from above. It is just like the photos but you need to get the view. The drive is spectacular, take caution though when sea is rough there is quite a deep dip when you go in the water.

Petani Beach is sort of a twin to Myrtos. Beautiful water, ample sunbeds & umbrellas yet plenty of space where there are none. Tavernas next to the beach. A great day can be had and the drive to get there from Argostoli is interesting and so is the ferry from Argostoli. Quicker by ferry & then the drive to Petani.

If you enjoy the sounds of the water & wish to feel like you are on a boat, then this restaurant is a must. Authentic Greek fish taverna with loads on the menu & if you can get there just as the sun goes down to get the colours of the sky and surroundings. Useful to take a light sweater, even in summer evenings, as the breeze off the sea can be a cool. You may even spot a turtle passing if you go during the daytime!
