The beach of Kalamaki is situated between Kommos Beach and Kokkinos Pyrgos Beach. Kalamaki Beach is very quiet compared to some other resorts in Crete. Because the beach is so long -2.5 km - you will always find a quiet spot for yourself.
Naturists walk south for about ten minutes to a stretch of beach where there are some tamarisk trees.
In between May and October there are nests with eggs of Caretta sea turtles on the beach. Signs are put up warning people to take care.
