Skala holidays are based along the beautiful 4km stretch of sand and shingle beach on the south-east coast of Kefalonia, popular with all types of holiday makers who are looking for gorgeous coastlines and plenty of tavernas and bars.
The Skala holiday season lasts from April to November, when the temperature rises from 20° to the early 30`s, perfect for sunbathing and swimming in the crystal clear sea. The more energetic Skala holiday makers can try their hand at a number of water sports available and, when you can drag yourself away from the beach, you will find a number of local shops selling good, cheap holiday gifts, such as pottery, ceramics, jewellery and Greek art, as well as supermarkets. When it comes to eating out in Skala you have a good choice of bars, tavernas, restaurants and cafes, offering local and international cuisine to suit all tastes and don`t forget to try the delicious, fresh fish speciality dishes. Skala nightlife tends to revolve around the tavernas and a few late night bars, keeping you going into the night, whilst on the road out of town you will find the well known, open air nightclub. If you are looking for a quieter evening then check out the Greek theme nights within the town. Here you can experience traditional dancing, local food and music.
