Melissani lake :
Boat-ride in the Cave of Melissani: The Cave of Melissani is located close to the town of Sami, about 20km from Argostoli, the capital of Kefalonia. It is without a doupt one of the most significant places for tourist to visit in Kefalonia. Surprisingly there is a lake inside the cave that has trees and forests surrounding it. The sight is simply magical. The cave itself has the shape of a B with 2 chambers separated with an island in the middle. The roof of one of the chambers has caved in centuries ago letting now the sunlight shine into the lake and making it a breath-taking sight. When the sun is right above at noon, the sunlight hitting the turquoise-blue waters create a magical illusion and the whole cave of Melissani suddenly fills with blue light. At noon is the best time to visit the cave and enjoy a relaxing boat-ride with a traditional boat at the lake. The cave of Melissani is 36m high, 40m wide and 3.5m long. A balcony was built on top of the cave for tourists to get a spectacular view of the inside from the top. The lake has a depth of 20 to 30m. There is also stalactites and stalagmites in the cave that enhance even more its beauty. The cave of Melissani leaves a memorable and lasting impression to everyone who visits it.

Drogarati cave:
Drogarati's Cave, which is close to Sami, was discovered 300 years ago, when a part of it was destroyed because of a strong earthquake, and so the entrance was created.
The cave's depth is 60m. from the ground level and it is open for the public since 1963.
It's got many stalactites and stalagmites created from the rain. In the big hall of the cave (900m2), call "Sala of Apotheosis" because of its perfect acoustics, are organized music and other shows.

Antisamos beach:
Antisamos is without a doubt one of the most beautiful beaches in Kefalonia located 27km east from Argostoli near to the port of Sami. With crystal clear blue waters and a lovely sourrounding of green hills and lush vegetation on top of it it makes the perfect destination for swimming and sunbathing. The beach is fully organized with umbrellas and sundecks and a bar. It is worth mentioning that Antisamos gained worldwide reputation through the Hollywood movie "Captain Corelli's Mandolin", where there is some scenes that were filmed there. It is easily accessed by the coastal road in Sami
