Kalamaki, Zakynthos

Kalamaki is a quiet and sophisticated resort in the south east of the island, less than 5 km from the capital town. It is also near (3 km) to the most popular resort on the island, Lagana, combining the best of both worlds; a chance to enjoy the facilities and nightlife in Lagana or to spend a tranquil holiday in quieter locations. Kalamaki has maintained its Greek feel, with the relaxed and slow place of life still apparent despite its recent and increasing popularity with tourists.

The beach at Kalamaki is part of Laganas bay and although not as big as Laganas beach it is still a nice sandy beach with gently shelving water.Parts of this beach are restricted for the turtles to use as a breading ground.

The nightlife in this resort is fairly low key but there are several bars and classy restaurants to while away the night fine dining, drinking and a bit of dancing if the mood takes you.

This is a lovely resort ideal for families.
