“The picturesque islet named Kastri, which you can see as you enter Kefalos has the basilica of Saint Stephen built on the east side of its shores.” – excerpt from the Kos Island Info site

… you can wade about half way across to the islet, then you do need to swim …
a beautiful beach indeed … :))

many think of Kos as a party island … and it can be that, if that’s what you’re looking for … but there are quiet charms about this beautiful island too … just gotto explore :)

    So you need a good set of lungs to get there, and thats before you start singing :)

  • lol … if singing’s not your thing you can always ring the singular bell which hangs outside the chapel ;)

    and of course you went for the quiet beaches rather than the parties… ;) a beautiful spot well captured Tina

  • If you must know, my accommodation was up on a hill just outside of Kefalos (30 minute walk outside of Kefalos) … Kefalos being one of the quietest little places on the island … I’d say I picked a quiet spot, yes :) I can drink and party at home if I really want … I can’t get up at sunrise to watch the sun coming up over the Mediterranean when I’m at home though … nor can I enjoy a fresh seafood dinner at a taverna on the water’s edge with some lovely local wine etc while I’m here at home … Priorities Richard … all about priorities … and mine might not be stock standard like every other girl’s …
