Head to quiet Gardenos village with your family, where kids can spot protected sea turtle nesting sites along the cliffs and swim in clear waters at Gardenos Beach. Check out Danilia Village, an open-air museum that recreates a 1930s Corfiot village used as a film set for 'The Durrells.'

The charming Maribel hotel in Kefalonia welcomes families with children over age 1. Short ferry rides keep spirits high between islands. A flexible schedule allows families to roam villages and shores at their own pace.
