Holidays in Kamari

For a sun-soaked, beach-based, blissed-out break, you can't improve on holidays in Kamari. Having been razed to the ground after the 1956 earthquake, the little village has been re-built as a fabulous tourist hotspot.

With a 2km swathe of black shingle lapped by the warm waters of the Aegean, your summer holidays in Kamari can be as laid-back or action-packed as you choose. As well as having sunbeds and umbrellas aplenty for your comfort on the hot sands, there are watersports on offer including the chance to go diving in a volcanic underwater world.

If you enjoy being in the heart of the action, then take a peek at the Hotel Kamari Beach. It's exactly where you'd expect it to be, and is next door to all the shops, restaurants and bars along the lively beachfront. As well as having a great selection of eateries here, venture into Kamari village for even more culinary choice.

As the sun goes down and Mount Vouno at the south end of the beach lights up, the bars and clubs spring into life. If you love it, but don't want to live in it then have a look at spending self catering holidays in Kamari at the Estia Studios or Maria Preka Studios.

For adventures away from the beach, visit ancient Thira, take a boat trip around the island or try out local wineries. And if you fancy yourself as a bit of the cool cat, then come on your holidays to Kamari during the annual Jazz Festival which is held in the open-air cinema. Groovy.
