When I first set foot in Kefalos, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. Some people had told me it was too quiet, others swore it was the “real Kos.” What I found was a mix of both: sleepy afternoons, beaches that looked like they’d been plucked from postcards, and food that could convert anyone into a lifelong fan of Greek tavernas.
