Island of Dias

Dias (Zeus) is a rocky little island named after the ancient altar of Zeus. Today there is a small chapel built on the ruins of the altar, dedicated to Virgin Mary Diotissa or Virgin Mary of Vlaherna, celebrated on the 2nd of July.

The Island of Dias less than one mile from the coast can be reached by boat from Pessada or Agia Pelagia ports.

If you are lucky you may have the chance to enjoy a moment like that on your next visit to the south of Kefalonia
