Attractions

To the east of Sami are also ruins. These are of the historic city and of the city wall. The city wall used to be almost 10 meters high, at the moment it is still several meters in height. The wall is built 2300 years ago, a real piece of mastership, considering the height of the wall and the steepness of the mountains on which it is built. And large parts of it survived 23 centuries of small and strong earthquakes.The area is full of interesting geological phenomena. Seventeen cave sites have been recorded in the area - a rare occurrence in Greek geomorphology- and significant in tracing the area's prehistoric period. To date, two of the caves are accessible to the public: the lake-grotto of Melissani in the Karavomylos area, and, Dragarati Cave located on the road to the village of Haliotata.Agrilia Monastery is situated on a hill overlooking the emerald beach of Antisamos and the coastline of Ithaca. The location is set against the background of Mount Aenos, covered with evergreens unique to Cephalonia.
