Karavados Holidays are one of a kind

There are many resorts of Kefalonia, offering beach holidays, night life holidays, cultural holidays, but none offer such an experience as Karavados does. Set about a mile inland from St Thomas, the nearest coast line, this resort has some of the best views of any holiday experience due to it being at the base of a mountain. Few places in the world are within walking distance of a beautiful beach front, with such a towering edifice at the rear.

Plenty to do on a Karavados Holiday

Thanks to its picture perfect location, Karavados is set to offer holiday makers a wide variety of options when it comes to deciding what to do each day. Of course you have the beach which is never far away, offering not only sandy pursuits like sun bathing and the ever popular beach fort building - who doesn't love a good beach fort? However, you also have all the activities found once you step into the water itself. There's snorkelling and scuba diving for those that want to dip their heads beneath the waves, but for anyone wanting to not get their hair too wet, there's wind surfing, surfing, body boarding and boat trips for those that want to head a bit further out.

With the mountain behind them, many holiday makers choose to take to the hills, whether on foot or by hiring a bicycle. This lets you explore the beautiful scenery of Karavados at your own pace, and of course the higher you go, the better your view of the surrounding countryside.

Speaking of which, much of this resort is surrounded by olive and citrus groves. While it can't be guaranteed that you can wander through them willy-nilly, there are plenty of local foot paths that let you get a closer look at these orchards, with nothing more relaxing than a picnic surrounded by sun soaked fruits and other produce.

For anyone wishing to explore some of the local culture, Karavados is a very small village, measuring only ½ long by ¼ mile wide, but it does feature some beautiful old Greek buildings including a rustic and picturesque church; surely capable of spicing up anyone's photo album.
