Kalamitsi beach

Kalamitsy, as known as Kavalikefta, is a beautiful natural beach surrounded by rock formations. It is located at the foot of the village of the same name, in the southwestern part of the island, 20 km from Lefkada. From the village to the beach there is a narrow winding road that can be reached by car or on foot.

Beach description

the beach of Kalamitsa is small in size. Bathing and sunbathing on its territory, guests have the opportunity to enjoy the crystal clear sea with turquoise water and a wild clean coast with stony and sandy surface. The cliffs in the bay are often used by vacationers for diving. The coastal waters are also perfect for surfing.

Along the beach area there is private parking and a canteen with fast food, sun loungers and beach umbrellas for rent. Staying on the beach until the evening, visitors can enjoy the stunning sea sunsets. Walking through the cliffs, you can easily get to the neighboring beach - Megali Petra, where nudists love to rest. Besides, there are often beautiful beaches nearby - Avali and Gaidaros. Other attractions availability to visitors to Kalamitsa include boat trips to the sea caves and paragliding.

When is the best time to go?

Greece - a country with a long length from north to south, so the recommendations will vary depending on the place where you are going. The holiday season  begins in May and reaches a peak in July-August: there are too many tourists, and the temperature on the southern islands reaches 40 degrees, which may still not play a role on the beach, but certainly not suitable for sightseeing. So the best time to relax in Greece is the end of spring-beginning of summer or September-October.
