Kaminia Beach in Kefalonia: Kaminia is a sandy beach located 34 km south of Argostoli, the beautiful capital of Kefalonia, and close to Skala village. It is one of the longest beaches of Kefalonia with crystalline waters, an ideal spot for a silent and relaxed day under the warm sun. The beach offers shelter to the loggerhead Carretta-Carretta sea turtles which used to be suffering mass extinction. The turtles nest in the gently sloped sand during the midnights of May and August, and if visitors are lucky they might witness them coming out of their eggs and running to the sea.
One long row of colorful sunbeds and umbrellas cover the sand offering lovely views of the endless blue sea. Kaminia is connected to the neighboring beach of Mounda offering a huge space where people can freely enjoy several activities and long walks along the beautiful coast.
There is a small snack bar right on the beach where visitors can refresh after a long stroll or swimming session with a beautiful panoramic view of the lush hilly cape. A tavern and a cafe are also available nearby. The area is relatively quiet and the water is warm and shallow, making it ideal for families with young children.
The countryside of Katelios village offers a perfect opportunity for enchanting walks amidst the lush green forests. It takes some minutes of walking to reach this beach, and it is easily accessible from the village of Skala.
