Kaminia Beach

Kaminia Beach (Paralia Kaminia) forms part of a stretch of sand extending for at least 2.5 kilometres from Kefalonia’s southernmost point. One of the longest beaches on the island, visitors can be sure of finding a spot, whether close to the round hills which back it or the shallow crystalline waters it meets. Some areas can be cordoned off as the nesting sites of loggerhead turtles. Once highly endangered, they are now making a comeback thanks to projects like that on Kaminia Beach.

Well suited to holidaymakers, Kaminia’s shallows run without any sudden drop-off for around 50 metres. The beach also boasts a good number of rentable sun loungers and umbrellas. There’s a snack bar, café and taverna, alongside toilets, showers, and ample parking. Kaminia’s southernmost end (sometimes known by the alternative name Mounda Beach) is often used by naturists.
