Since SV CUBA is securely anchored in the bay of Karavomilos the crew makes their way from the mesmerizing Melissani Cave. We follow a tip from a local that there is another cave nearby that may be overlooked by the tourist groups.

After some asking around and getting lost, we find the elusive Zervati Cave and indeed, this one has neither a tour guide nor an entrance free and best of all, we have it all to ourselves! As we descend, the temperature almost immediately drops. Soon nothing is felt of the over 40 °C that we were exposed to on the way to the cave. A first step into the crystal-clear water reveals where the relief from the heat originates as the water in the cave is a mere 7 °C!

Those caves are part of an astounding natural phenomenon. They are connected to a mysterious geological kast network that is still not fully understood but it is proven that seawater flows all the way from the west coast of Kefalonia to the caves located on the east of the island.
Whether you are cruising or charter a boat, visiting one of the caves in Karavomilos is a must and definitely one of the top things to do in Kefalonia. Both the Melissani or Zervati Cave are less than a kilometer away from the beach and make a fantastic trip for the whole family.

Unfortunately, we cannot stay for too long because we still have to change the overdue alternator belt of our old yanmar engine since our boat batteries were not charging properly. We also want to catch a weather window, and still have to collect our cruising stamp. Without it, we will not be able to sail from the Ionian to the Aegean Islands and visit spectacular Shipwreck Beach. – The days never seem to be long enough to get everything done in this cruising lifestyle!

We are Enrique (Kiki) from Cuba and Sarah (Salsa) from Germany on a mission to sail around the world. We have almost no sailing experience, but are determined to circumnavigate & share our adventures with you. Join us on our first stop, when we explore the abandoned bunkers of Albania.

We are by no means film makers or video editors so please let us know what you think about our videos, what you like to see more of - or less ;-)

Living on the hook sailing around the world can be a real challenge and a bit scary at times (especially when your home dangles from an iron thread just 10 mm thick). What is to come? We don't know but day by day we are learning how to live more sustainable, off-grid, more connected to nature, so we can share our adventures with you.
