Kalami is among the prettiest villages on Corfu’s north-east coast situated just 30 km from Corfu Town and 6 km from Kassiopi.
Kalami used to be the favorite destination and place of residence of Lawrence Durrell, author of the “Alexandria Quartet». His short stay in Corfu is described in a lyrical way in “Cell of Prospero”. His house, known as the “White House”, operates nowadays as a guest house and tavern.
Scenes from “The Greek Tycoon” and the famous James Bond movie “For your eyes only” were also filmed in the area.
Almost untouched by mass tourism, the area retains its pure character, while also catering for visitors in search for a placid hideaway to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing holiday in Corfu. Kalami is the perfect choice for romantic vacations and excursions in nature, for travelers who want to discover the beauties of the authentic island life.
The stunning beach with the white pebbles and cobalt waters that has been awarded with the Blue Flag by the European Community, the plethora of traditional taverns by the sea offering daily caught fish, the small shops, as well as the exciting water sports that can be found in the region will thrill even the most demanding travelers.
The picturesque village of Kalami offers many seaside restaurants and bars that remain open throughout the day along with supermarkets, souvenir shops and tourist offices.
At Kalami beach one can relax on a sun lounger under the shade of the umbrella or rent a pedal boat, canoe and explore the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea.
The experienced trainers from the water sports center give bathers the opportunity to enjoy the watersports of their choice such as water ski, rings and banana with utmost safety.
Mailboxes as well as currency exchange and car rental offices are also available in the area while the closest ATM machine can be found in Kassiopi.
