Korythi is at the very northern tip of the island, from the airport you will take the coastal road and will witness the spectacular views of the sea, mountains and craggy inlets. You will pass through the little fishing port of Agios Nikolaos (pictured above) where the daily ferry for Cephalonia leaves. Here you will find a lively promenade with shops and tavernas from which you can watch the fishing boats and harbour life whilst you relax with a coffee or a cool drink. One of the tavernas sits right on the waters edge and is a most romantic location for dinner. Here there is also a small very safe sandy beach and it is just 3 kilometres from Aeolus Villa. In the opposite direction just around the corner from the house you can follow the road to the lighthouse and windmill, see spectacular views of Cephalonia only a few kilometres away and take boat trips to the famous Blue Caves (pictured below).

Here there is greek village life and serving locally caught fresh fish, an excellent restaurant overlooking the natural harbour. Boat trips come and go from here and is a popular spot for a lazy lunch or swim.
