Kefalonia International Airport (EFL) is located on the eastern side of the island, approximately a 1-hour drive away. Public transportation is limited, so renting a car is highly recommended for exploring nearby attractions like Myrtos Beach and Fiskardo.
The best time to visit is between May and October when the weather is warm and suitable for beach activities. Summer months can be busy, while spring and autumn offer a more peaceful experience with pleasant temperatures.
