This sheltered bay offers excellent protection from prevailing winds while giving you front-row views of the rugged limestone cliffs that make Kalymnos a world-renowned climbing destination. The bay's remote location means you'll enjoy peaceful solitude away from the busier parts of the island, with pristine waters ideal for swimming and snorkeling.
