A grove of olive trees on Kefalonia in the Ionian Sea. It's a beautiful island full of rural beaches, vineyards and olive groves.

Olive oil is this island's main export with over a million olive trees covering the island. The island used to have over 200 operating oil presses until the devastating earthquake of 1953 dropped the number to around 13.

In August 1953 the area had an astounding 113 recorded earthquakes. The largest measured 7.2 and caused the island to rise by 60 cm. It leveled whole villages and many were killed. A large portion of the survivors left Kefalonia for Athens, UK, America and Australia. The region around the Ionian Islands is the most earthquake prone region spanning from Western Europe to China.

Lovely Greek family apartments in great location.

"A proper friendly Greek family business run with care and thoughtful consideration. Simple, clean and all you need. Kitchen very basic and not really for eating in every night, but who wants that? Lovely location with access to coast and 5 minutes to the main town. Airport only 15 mins away. Loved everything about it. Kefalonia a beautiful place. "
