Discover the Tranquillity and Authenticity of the Paliki Peninsula on Kefalonia
The Paliki Peninsula offers exceptional peace and authenticity, far from the busier regions of Kefalonia. Here, you’ll find a picturesque landscape of gentle hills, well-tended fields, traditional mountain villages, and wide sandy beaches, known for their striking red sand.
Some of the finest beaches include the famous Xi Beach, Kounopetra, and Platia Ammos. Particularly enchanting is Petani Beach, also known as the “little Myrtos,” with its impressive turquoise waters.
The main town on the peninsula, Lixouri, is Kefalonia’s second-largest after Argostoli. While Argostoli is lively and bustling, Lixouri has a more laid-back charm, offering an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, cafés, and bars.
Situated on the western side of the island, Paliki rewards visitors with stunning sunsets. This region is an ideal retreat for walkers, cyclists, and those seeking relaxation in untouched nature and absolute tranquillity.
