Neighbourhood information

The closest beach to Karavados is St Thomas and beaches of Lourdata end Avithos are only a 10-15 minute drive away. Karavados has a small mini market and the next to it village, Peratata has tavernas, bakery, fruit store, mini market and pharmacy. In the centre of Karavados is the church of St Constantine and Helena, a characteristic one of the kefalonian architecture and only 10 minutes drive away is St Georges Castle and the Monastery of Saint Andrew. Karavados is considered the Kapetanochori of Kefalonia, as many of its residents deal with the sea, either as fishermen or sailors. An iron anchor in the center of the village is a monument dedicated to “the village of its lost seamen”, as is written in the engraved inscription (terrabook). Faros in greek means lighthouse. The lighthouse stands alone and tall in both light and darkness, is a focal point which symbolizes strength, guidance and safe harbor, it is a spiritual Welcome Mat for all those who are travelling (Joseph Panek 2010), either seamen or visitors from far away.
