Kefalos Holidays

Situated on a breathtaking peninsula on the westernmost point of Kos, Kefalos was the island’s first capital. Now, it’s a tropical paradise with expanses of exotic greenery from the nearby Plaka Forest, blankets of lily-white sands decorated by towering palms and topaz Aegean waters. Tempted? Its alluring landscape is just one of its major draws.

Split into two, hideaway among the hills where a maze of whitewashed architecture awaits your discovery. Alternatively, check out Kamari’s beachfront establishments and place yourself among medieval basilicas and a luxurious marina. Kos Town is only 50 minutes away and you can jet ski to the islet of Kastri, home to the blue and white church which features in the film Mamma Mia.
