Lixouri is the second town of Kefalonia and the centre of the Paliki peninsula, across the gulf from Argostoli and linked to it by a car ferry.

Area guide
The peninsula
The Paliki is a broad, rolling peninsula, less mountainous than the rest of the island, with cliffs on its western side and a low coast facing the gulf. Lixouri stands on the gulf shore facing Argostoli, and the ferry between the two is the everyday link; by road the journey round the head of the gulf is much longer. The villages inland are agricultural, and the peninsula as a whole has seen little of the resort building of the south coast.
Property
The market is village houses and town property rather than villas: stone houses to restore in the villages, houses and apartments in Lixouri, and land with sea views on the west and south of the peninsula. Asking prices are shown on each listing; ask for an independent valuation before you make an offer. Buyers include British and German-speaking retirees and second-home owners, and Kefalonian families of the diaspora with roots in the villages.
