Overview of your Argostolion tour:

Our starting point in this tour is Argostoli. Argostoli, has been the capital and administrative centre of Kefalonia since 1757. We continue our journey, by visiting the memorial of the Italians which commemorates the 9250 Italian soldiers who either died battling the Germans, were executed or died during transportation to detention camps. This is the sad story of the Italian Acqui Division, September 1943. Then we visit "Katavothres" from where the sea water flows inland to enter sink holes below sea level. Next, we visit "fanari" the lighthouse of Argostoli. Fanari of St. Theodore, was built during the British occupation by governor Napier. If you are visiting in summer for example, we can make a stop at a secluded beach where you can enjoy the sea and have a swim. We continue by passing through a small church which has an incredible view of Zante island and the whole Lassi area of Argostoli. We finish our tour by walking from Koutavos lagoon to the Devosetou Venetian bridge.

Your Argostolion tour itinerary

- We start from "Maistrato". We cross the pine forest and take the road towards the memorial of the Italians and take the path to the "Katavothres", one of the world's most astonishing geological phenomena for which there have been many discussions. - We continue to "Fanari" of Saint Theodore. It is named after the nearby church, though the whole region is now commonly known as 'Fanari' or lighthouse. The original lighthouse was built in 1829 under British rule. - Then through a trail with a unique view we end up on a small beach for a break and swim (depending on the season). - After through olive trees and a forest, we end up at the small church and we make a short stop to admire the view. - Then we desert to Argostoli and find the Koutavos lagoon, and we walk on the Devosetou bridge one of the longest and oldest (Venetian) bridges of Europe. - Finanly in the front of the coast were the fishing boats sell fresh fish, we can find careta-careta turtles, a perfect moment for our last pictures.
