The stunning bay of Assos on the Island of Kefalonia in Greece


The tiny, secluded village of Assos is romantic setting and perhaps the most beautiful location on the island of Kefalonia. The Assos peninsula is on the west coast of the island with the village nestling in its horse-shoe shaped harbour. The whole area is surrounded by beautiful coastal scenery of dramatic white rocks and cobalt sea with hillsides covered in forests of cypress and pine. Dominating the entire area are the remains of a Venetian fortress high up on the imposing peninsula.
