The Greek town of Sami is located on the north east coast of the island of Cephalonia. It is a busy working port that is located around 20 km from Argostoli, the island's capital. The picturesque town lies on a wide bay with a long tree lined waterfront and has lovely views across to the neighbouring island of Ithaca. There are a number of bars, restaurants and tavernas located along the waterfront promenade where the day's fishing catch can often be seen on display. The town's nearest beach, Antisamos beach, is a short walk from the town and has a long stretch of white pebbles and is great for swimming in. There is also Karavomilos beach which is 2 km from the town and the resort of Aghia Efimia whish is 8 km from Sami.
The island has two ferry ports along with a cruise boat jetty. Greek ferries have improved greatly over the years and now a ferry journey over to the mainland, for a day's shopping in Patras is a real treat.
Kyllini is a Greek town that is located on the Peloponnesian Peninsula's most western crook, and is perhaps best known as home to its busy port. However, there is more to the town than just the port and visitors should take time whilst there to explore all that is on offer. The first thing visitors notice is the town's backdrop of thick pine forests overlooking the town and the medieval castle that is located there. The town is also the beginning of am 11 km long coastline of white sand that gently leads to the lovely waters of the Ionian Sea.
From the town's highest point, the castle, all roads lead back to the town where visitors will find a square with a number of tavernas and shops. Also in the town there are good examples of terracotta roofed houses and apartments that seemed to have been built in a haphazard formation.
Also of interest in the town are a number of Greek and Roman ruins, with the most popular being the Crusader fortress of Chlemoutsi. Over the years the town has been ruled by Germanic tribes, the Turks and the Venetians and have all influence over the town in their own way.
