Loukata is a small hamlet just up the valley from Agia Efimia, around two minutes drive away. Peace and quiet is it's attraction. Agia Efimia is one of the few small harbour on Kefalonia and although it has encouraged tourism, has still managed to maintain it's traditional style and culture. There are many tavernas, snack bars and coffee bars in the harbour and for shopping Sami is just up the coastline. Sami is famous for its' role in the hit film Cpt Correlis' Mandolin, as a large portion of the film was set here. There is a fantastic beach just round the corner Antisamo with fine white sand and shingle. For those who like adventure you may wish to try scuba diving or hire a small motorboat from the port of Agia Efimia. In the area of Sami are the Drogorati caves & Melisani Lake a couple of the most favourite tourist attractions on the island. Fiscardo and Assoss with their quaint harbour and Venitian architecture are only a short drive away. Don't forget Mytos beach 2 mins away
