Sami · Kefalonia
Property for sale in Sami, Kefalonia
Sami is the main port on the east coast of Kefalonia, at the foot of the mountains on a wide bay facing Ithaca, with ferries to Ithaca and to Patras on the mainland. It is a working town rather than a resort, rebuilt after 1953 along a long waterfront, with beaches nearby and the caves and underground lake of the limestone country behind. It suits buyers who want a year-round town on the quiet side of the island.

The port
Sami's waterfront is a line of cafés and the ferry quay, with the town on flat ground behind and Ithaca filling the horizon. It is the island's link to the Patras route and the crossing to Ithaca, which gives it a purpose beyond tourism and keeps it open in winter. Agia Efimia is up the coast to the north, Poros to the south, and Argostoli and the airport are across the island by road.
Property
Sami offers houses in and around the town, villas on the slopes with views to Ithaca, and plots in the valley behind. Asking prices are shown on each listing; ask for an independent valuation before you make an offer. British buyers are a familiar presence in Sami, as are Italians who know the port from the ferry.
