Operated by Top Private Tours Greece · Argostoli, Kefalonia (Ionian Islands)
You step off the tender into Argostoli's bright harbor and the island breathes in: sea-salty, wind-moving, limestone cliffs just beyond the town. The private vehicle eases onto narrow coastal roads, and within an hour you stand at Melissani Lake where a collapsed roof frames a pool of turquoise so clear sunlight seems to paint the water from within. Boats glide across the lake as shafts of light slice the cave’s cool air.
