Kamari Beach

Kamari Beach is located along the southeastern coast of Santorini, about 10 kilometers south-east of Fira. It is very popular, known and lively as well as being the largest beach on the island. Once you arrive you will be fascinated by the black stone of volcanic origin and by the clear and calm sea. With regard to the terrain, we advise you to take your flip flops with you often because the pebbles become really hot when it is very hot. You will immediately notice the large Mesa Vouno rock that rises from the sea and divides the long stretch of sand into two parts, immediately after this large boulder is the beach of Perissa and afterwards our beloved Kamari.

If you are fond of trekking and long walks, you can walk up Mesa Vouno taking the marked trail. Or if the idea of getting to the top appeals to you but you are not very experienced in hiking you can go up by car, moped or donkey. On the top of the high promontory you can visit the excavation site Alt-Thera, an old village no longer inhabited where you can admire the remains. In addition to the site, of course, from here you can enjoy a spectacular view across the beach, don't forget the camera!

On the Kamari beach it is possible to practice water sports, in particular diving and snorkeling; great to do here since the Blue Flag has been attributed to the bay. In fact, if you dive you will immediately understand how exciting it is to penetrate these beautiful waters, a real adventure tour! But actually, thanks to the wind that often blows over the bay, even sports like windsurfing and kitesurfing are very popular in this area. Alternatively you can also practice paragliding or rent jet skis.

It is equipped with bars, restaurants, hotels, entertainment venues and stalls that you can find along the seafront. Obviously there are plenty of places to rent sunbeds and umbrellas, which will be delivered to you free of charge if you buy even just a coffee in some beach bars that allow it. Furthermore the staff of these bars and clubs is always very kind and helpful.
The road that runs alongside the beach is full of bars, restaurants, clothing stores, minimarkets, ouzerie and gyros shops. In short, you can give yourself to mad joy!

From Kamari beach you can leave to visit the Antica Fira, but remember to book because in the summer there are many requests and you may not find a place.

This beach is synonymous with comfort, whatever you need you have there. Among other things it is also reachable by bus from Fira, or if you decide to use the car you can park near the beach!
Come and discover this unmissable beach!
