Substrate comment
The substrate of Foki bay is angular, flint-like grey pebbles and shingle. It is not overly attractive.

FoI comment
A five minute walk along the coastal road from the north Kefalonian harbour of Fiscardo is the pretty, enclosed Foki bay. Literally translated, this means Seal bay, named after the Mediterranean Monk seals that were once frequently seen in the bay.

Why not treat yourself to the Kefalonia Digital Information Pack which includes 7 Introductory Walks, a guide to Kefalonia, eight wildlife booklets and the online version of the 25 min FoI Movie Kefalonia Explorer - just 3.95! Click for more info on the Kefalonia Digital Information Pack

 
AttractivenessFoi rating: 7/10
This is a very attractive, enclosed bay, with steep hillsides all around. A few small boats moor just off the beach in the warm, sheltered waters.
 
CleanlinessFoi rating: 7/10
The beach seemed fairly clean and litter free when Friends of Kefalonia visited, save the odd bit of rubbish washed ashore.
 
AccessFoi rating: 6/10
Foki bay is about a five minute walk from Fiscardo, so if you are staying there it is fairly easy to get to. If you are elsewhere on Kefalonia (Cephalonia) , you will need a car.
 
ShadeFoi rating: 9/10
The beach at Foki bay backs onto a small olive grove, which makes for a very pleasant cool retreat from the hot sun and a perfect spot for a picnic. Take something to sit on.
 
FacilitesFoi rating: 6/10
There are no facilities right down by the beahc, but Foki bay is such as short distance from Fiscardo, a leisurely five minute walk. In Fiscardo there are numerous tavernas, cafes and shops where you can get anything you need. Make sure you organised that bank overdraft first though!
