Kalymnos

Kalymnos is famous for one thing in particular: its rocky landscape. Due to it, the island has shaped up to be a top climbing destination and already counts many climbing clubs. What’s more, the International Climbing Festival is taking place every year in Kalymnos, attracting climbers from all over the world.

The prosperity of Kalymnos traditionally rested on its sponge industry, but blights have now wiped out almost all of the eastern Mediterranean’s sponges. Only a few boats of the island’s thirty-strong fleet remain in use.

If you dream of holidays by the beach, Kalymnos is a go-to destination. In general, the best seaside resorts are located on the western side of the island. The seaside resorts of Myrties, Kantouni, and Emporios have amazing organized beaches with crystal-clear waters. For yacht owners and clients, one of the must things to do in Kalymnos is to organize a sail trip to the neighboring island of Telendos.

Telendos is a remote tiny island that boasts an astonishing natural landscape. There, you will find many naturist beaches, secluded coves, and traditional settlements.
