South Kefalonia – Skala & Mounda Beach & Mycenaean Tombs
Activity Description
Uncover the fascinating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty that makes Kefalonia truly unique. This full-day guided excursion invites you to explore the island’s ancient past and its serene coastal charm — a perfect experience for history lovers, nature enthusiasts, and travelers seeking authentic Greek moments.
Your adventure begins at the Mycenaean Tomb of Tzanata, one of Kefalonia’s most important archaeological sites. Step back more than 3,000 years as you walk around this impressive tomb, believed to have belonged to a Mycenaean noble or even a king. Learn about the island’s Bronze Age civilization and its fascinating connection to Homeric legends and the epic tales of Odysseus.
Continue your journey to the Roman Villa of Skala, where beautifully preserved 2nd-century mosaics bring to life scenes of classical artistry and elegance. Admire the intricate craftsmanship that reflects Kefalonia’s role in the ancient world before heading to the nearby Skala Village. Here, you’ll have free time to wander through charming streets, browse local boutiques, or relax at a seaside café overlooking the Ionian Sea.
Next, discover the natural tranquility of Mounda Beach, also known as Turtle Beach — a peaceful coastal sanctuary and one of the main nesting sites of the endangered Caretta caretta sea turtles. Enjoy a swim stop in crystal-clear waters, sunbathe on soft golden sands, or simply take in the unspoiled beauty of this protected environment.
To complete your day, indulge in a delicious seaside lunch at a traditional Greek taverna. Taste the island’s fresh seafood and local specialties, all served with warm Kefalonian hospitality and stunning sea views — the perfect ending to a journey that combines ancient history, natural wonder, and authentic island life.
