Fiskardo is the northernmost port of of Kefalonia, and probably the most picturesque with it pastel colored buildings with Venetian influence. The building surround a beautiful picture postcard fishing harbour and are dotted with friendly and excellent restaurants.

Fiskardo is also a ferry port where you can travel to the ports of Frikes on Ithaca and Lefkada.

Fiskardo is located north-east of Assos and north of Agia Efimia. Fiskardo was saved from the 1953 earthquake due to the limestone it sits on.
During recent year and the building of hotels and shops a lot of historical find have been found including Roman graves intact with the gold and jewels they were buried with. Also Greek artifacts have been found, including a plaque dating back to ancient Greece which gave thanks to the people of Panormos from the people of Athens for allowing them to hunt in the area.

There is a small museum just at the top of the harbour showing how the village has evolved over the years, and is well worth a visit.
