Fiscardo is a small traditional village on the northernmost tip of Kefallonia, the most beautiful island in western Greece.

The village was named after Robert Guiscard, who seized the island from the Byzantines on his last expedition in 1085. Swathed in greenery, the settlement provides an excellent sample of Ionian island architecture, with its old manor houses and maze of cobbled streets that beckon to be explored. All this, against a backdrop of crystal-clear beaches and coves, fringed with olive trees and cypresses.

The town has an excellent tourism infrastructure: in addition to the traditional tavernas with their authentic Greek cuisine, fresh fish and lobster, there are a number of cafes and bars, as well as yacht-mooring facilities.

The beauty of the landscape and the hospitable locals make Fiskardo a favourite destination for holidaymakers from across the world, including numerous celebrities.
