Beaches of Kalymnos
At Pothia: not to be missed are the beachfront sites of Gefyra, Therma

along the island's west coast.
At Vathy: Rina (rocky coastline interrupted by minor bights) and Akti

accede some more remote beaches, namely Almyra, Drassonta, Pezonta, Palionissos,

At Emporio: lovely beaches around the village, shaded here and there by
wild pines and lentisks, featuring an alternation of pebbly zones and
rocks.

At Massouri, one of the island's finest beaches, right in front of the

At Myrties: pebbly beach right in front of the settlement - Beach at Melitsacha.
At Panormos: beaches of Platis Yialos, Kantouni and Linaria
On the island of Telendos: look for the diminutive beach stripes of Chochlakas

On the island of Pserimos: beautiful sandy beach at the port; an exotic
atmosphere at Vathy (a 45 min. walk or by boat) - Beaches of Panaghia
Grafiotissa and the islet of Plati.
