There is a wondrous stone bridge named Drapano Bridge which is worthy of a visit, as well as an archaeological museum too.
Lassi
Neighbouring Argostoli, you could couple a trip here with a visit to the capital. There are two beaches here on which you can relax, Makris Yialos and Platis Yialos. If you are looking for something a little more peaceful, there are some beautiful tranquil bays too.
Spartia
Spartia is somewhat quieter than Argostoli and Lassi. Full of charm and things to explore, head to the remains of the castle, then amble around the town. There are plenty of opportunities for a stroll and the countywide lends itself well for discovering olive groves and other more traditional Greek elements.
