DESTINATIONS

Kalamos

A lush green island with dramatic cliffs, secluded bays, and crystal-clear waters, perfect for a peaceful escape.

Kalamos is a mountainous island and a former community in the Ionian Islands. The name Kalamos means reed in Greek and the presence of this plant along its coastline in the past may have given its name. Another version is that the island had several beaches with good sand (Kali Ammos in Greek) hence the name given.

Porto Leone

Situated in the southern part of the island, this area, named by the Venetians, is a beloved destination among boaters exploring the Ionian Sea. The scenery evokes a nostalgic charm, akin to scenes from a classic film. Picture dropping anchor in the tranquil green-blue waters, enveloped by a pine forest, with remnants of an abandoned old village adding to the enchanting ambiance. It’s truly magical!
