Your guide to Fiskardo

All About Fiskardo

At the far northern tip of Kefalonia, the largest of Greece’s Ionian Islands,

you’ll find the port town of Fiskardo. Once a tiny seaside village, this colourful harbour now teems with activity: yachts and red-hulled fishing boats bob along the quay, brightening views from seafood restaurants serving local, fresh-caught swordfish and Spanish mackerel. Beyond the shore, the sun warms the waters of the sparkling Ionian Sea, inviting boaters and swimmers to navigate its turquoise depths.

As one of the areas least affected by the 1953 Ionian earthquake, Fiskardo is especially revered for its historic Venetian-style architecture, marked by painted pastel facades, breezy balconies, and iconic red tile roofs. You can even find historic Fiskardo villas and mansions tucked away in Kefalonia’s cypress-covered hills, but make no mistake: This is not a village suspended in time. Fiskardo’s upscale boutiques, chic cafes, and late-night dining spots are as modern as anything you’ll find on the mainland.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Fiskardo

Kefalonia’s mild Mediterranean climate makes Fiskardo an inviting destination year-round, but it’s hard to beat summer in the Ionian Islands. From June to October, when the sea is at its warmest, any excuse to be on the water is a good one. It’s an excellent time to charter a boat and explore the island by sea or go swimming at one of the sunny beaches. Snorkelling, deep-sea diving, and fishing are popular summer excursions as well, though it’s just as nice to enjoy a drink beneath an umbrella at a quayside cafe. Winter in Fiskardo is pleasant, with temperatures rarely getting too cold, even at night, but some shops and restaurants may close for the off-season. Be sure to check seasonal schedules when planning a trip to Fiskardo in winter or autumn.


Top things to do in Fiskardo

Foki Beach

Five minutes south of Fiskardo, Foki Beach’s pebbled shores give way to the clear blue waters of the Ionian Sea. This sheltered cove is an ideal place for a summer swim or visit by boat, and you may even spot one of the monk seals from which the beach takes its name. On sunny days, patches of shade from nearby olive trees offer respite from the heat.

Erissos Paths

A trio of walking paths wend through Kefalonia’s verdant cypress forest and onto three destinations: an old Venetian lighthouse, the beautiful bay of Foki, and the stone remains of an abandoned Kefalonian village. The Erissos paths range from 850 metres to 10 kilometres, with varying degrees of difficulty. Hiking boots are recommended on the two longer trails.

Quayside dining

Fiskardo’s fishing industry feeds a thriving quayside restaurant scene, where chalkboard menus are updated daily with the island’s latest catches. Visitors will find the menus ranging from Mediterranean to traditional Greek, with vegetarian options also on the table. Views of the quay and the sea beyond elevate meals here even further, and on summer nights, there’s nothing like a post-dinner drink or dessert to close out the day.
