After visiting Assos in Kefalonia, I wonder why tourists still willingly linger in the hustle and bustle of Santorini... Assos is at least as beautiful and unique in its own right! Pink-yellow houses, bougainvillea plants everywhere you look, small alleys, and clear blue water in a cove to cool off. It is also wonderfully quiet, at least if you arrive around 3-4 PM. Walk through the small village to take in every view, splash and relax in the cozy cove, and finish off with a drink at the "Sea Side" restaurant to catch the last rays of sun.
