Just 67 kilometers southwest of Heraklion, the beautiful Kalamaki Beach awaits visitors looking for a well-organized yet peaceful coastal escape. The beach lies 9 km south of Tymbaki and 12 km west of Mires, making it easily accessible by rental car for a relaxing day by the sea.
Kalamaki Beach is fully equipped with amenities that make it a comfortable choice for families and travelers of all kinds. You’ll find:
