Kefalos in Kos

Kefalos is set high above Kefalos bay about 40 kilometres from Kos Town. Kefalos was the capital for a while during the antiquity. I do not know how big the population was then, but today it is just over 2,000 people living here.

It is a pleasant village that is not noticeably affected by tourism. At least not if you compare with the major tourist resorts. At the beginning of the village, after the long uphill slope, lies a couple of nice tavernas, and nearby stands the remains of an ancient defence castle (Kastro) overlooking Kefalos Bay. The Kastro is in ruins, but the views is impressive. Below the village are two beaches: Kefalos and Kamari.

It is not a big difference to other tourist resorts, maybe some fewer tourists and the sunbeds are not as many and they are not so close to each other.

Just outside Kefalos, on the way to Agios Theologos beach, lies a beautifully situated cemetery where the graves have what you could call "heavenly" views.

ACCOMMODATION IN KEFALOS

The range of hotels is large, in the village and at the two beaches. The advantage of staying here is the proximity to the many beautiful beaches, like Paradise beach and Agios Theologos beach. Kokalakis Hotel and Villa Popi Studios are the two very good hotels in Kefalos.
