Sami
Couples and travellers choosing a harbour base for days on Kefalonia’s east coast
Sami's port and waterfront organise a holiday on Kefalonia's eastern coast. Meals beside the water can sit alongside a Melissani visit or an Antisamos beach day, while the town itself provides the place to return to after those outings.
We would compare Sami when several days in the east are part of the plan. A room near the port and a house outside town offer different walks and evenings. For travellers arriving by sea, the port, accommodation address and onward itinerary need to fit together.
Melissani is a separate visit and Antisamos requires its own journey. Verify opening arrangements for your dates and plan the return. Do not assume every ferry to Kefalonia arrives at this port.
Our tip
Confirm that your ferry actually arrives in Sami before arranging a transfer. For the stay, compare the waterfront walk and the separate route to Antisamos.

Questions about Sami
It can also be compared as a stay centred on the waterfront and eastern outings. Choose around evenings and activities as well as the sailing.
No. Plan it as a separate beach outing and verify the route from your accommodation and back.
Melissani is a cave-lake attraction. Compare Sami or another settlement as the base and arrange the visit separately.
Confirm the port on the ticket, sailing date and transfer to your address. Kefalonia has different arrival points, so the island name alone is insufficient.
