Kakava Reef Semi-Submarine Cruise – Explore the underwater Kefalonia
Activity Description
Join us for an unforgettable underwater journey with Kalypso Star, the only trimaran cruise semi-submarine boat in Kefalonia, specially designed for marine exploration with large panoramic underwater windows.
The Kakava Reefs start just 300 meters southeast of Skala and stretch for 4 nautical miles toward Cape Mounda. This area is a natural and historical wonder, with vivid colors, large rocky formations, and small caves. If you're lucky, you might even spot Mediterranean sea turtles near Potamakia Beach—also known as Turtle Beach.
Ancient Dulichion – Myth & History Beneath the Sea
According to local tradition, the Kakava Reefs are the remnants of the sunken ancient city of Dulichion, as mentioned by Homer. A specific spot, called the “Amphoras Fields”, lies at a depth of 4 meters and contains Roman amphorae and pottery, believed to have come from a sunken Roman merchant ship. Nearby lies another ancient wreck with a cargo of stone anchors, and close to Skala beach rests a sunken wooden vessel from 1958.
A Living Underwater Museum
Though short in duration (just 90 minutes), this cruise is packed with beauty and intrigue. It includes narration about WWII hero John Capes, the sole survivor from the sunken submarine Perseus. His miraculous escape adds even more depth to this unique cruise.
