Beaches

A long, sandy beach leads down to gently shelving, shallow water. Apart from pedalos and canoes, you won't find many watersports as the safety of the turtles takes priority, but try nearby Tsilivi or Vassilikos instead.

Eating out

There's a good choice of bars, restaurants and tavernas. However Laganas is only a 5 minute taxi ride away for a change of scenery.

Nightlife

The nightlife in Kalamaki is low key, and is based around the resort's bars. For a more active night out, hop in a taxi and make the 5 minute trip to Laganas.

Shopping

All daily basics are readily available and there are lots of tourist shops along the main road and the two main shopping streets two blocks back from there.

Local information

The sandy shores of Kalamaki not only attract sun seekers - a colony of loggerhead turtles use this as a nesting beach and are the star attraction here.
