Kamari Beach - Kos Island

Kamari

The beautiful sand and shingle beach of Kamari is located on the south-western shore of the Greek island of Kos, in the picturesque bay of Kefalos. This beach with a peaceful atmosphere and beautiful views lies about 41 km from the capital of Kos.

Kamari Beach is a quiet, organised beach, equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas. However, thanks to its length of almost 5 km, it is not overcrowded and visitors enjoy the ample space it offers them. The surface of the beach is a mixture of sand and pebbles. If you want a more sandy beach, go to the left, eastern part of the beach, towards Kefalos and Agios Stefanos beaches. The right side of the beach, on the other hand, is considered more beautiful, thanks to the rocks that tower above it.

Kamari Beach has a gradual entrance to the sea, making it popular with families with children. In some places, however, the steep pebbly shores can be a surprise, making it more difficult to leave the sea. The entire Kefalos peninsula is marked by volcanic activity, which is reflected in the character of the landscape. The beach area is therefore rather rocky and there is less vegetation.

The Kamari area boasts crystal clear water, but is also said to be the coldest on Kos. On hot summer days it can be a pleasant refreshment. The water in Kamari is calm and suitable for swimming and snorkelling.

Kamari Beach is located on the southwest coast of the Greek island of Kos and forms part of the resort of the same name. The beach is well-equipped and offers sunbed and umbrella hire as well as the opportunity to try some water sports. A popular activity for tourists is to rent a pedal boat and sail to the nearby Kastri islet. The popular holiday resort of Kefalos is also close to the beach.

Kamari Beach's tourist amenities include several tavernas and cafes along the coast, where traditional Greek dishes, fresh seafood and refreshing drinks can be enjoyed overlooking the sea. There are also souvenir shops, beach equipment and small grocery stores nearby.

Kamari Beach, surrounded by beautiful natural scenery, is an attractive destination for visitors seeking peace and relaxation with convenient access to tourist facilities. The view of the Kastri islet gives the beach a unique atmosphere. Near the beach there is a small marina for yachts and fishing boats.
