Myrtos Beach
Myrtos Beach is in the region of Pylaros, in the north-west of Kefalonia island, in the Ionian Sea of Greece. Myrtos beach lies between the feet of two mountains, Agia Dynati and Kalon Oros (901m).
Myrtos has been described as “one of the most dramatic beaches in Greece”, with its “mile-and-a-half long arc of dazzling white pebbles.”
It was used as the location for the mine explosion episode in the film Captain Corelli’s Mandolin.
Myrtos has been voted 12 times the best Greek beach while it regularly features in best beaches lists.
A steep, winding road, about 2 km in length and with hairpin turns, leads down to the beach from the village of Divarata.
During the high tourist-season in the summer, the Municipality of Pylaros runs a public bus service to and from Myrtos Beach, departing from the harbour area in Agia Efimia. Timetables can be found at the Tourist Information office in Agia Efimia and may also be listed online. The bus stops on the road leading down to the beach, with a brief walk down. Private-car parking is available at the base of the cliffs.There are several tavernas at the top of the road leading down to the beach in the village of Divarata, and a beach bar.
Beach lounges and umbrellas are available for hire.
