Santorini Kamari 01
Kamari Santorini: Kamari is a famous beach resort of Santorini situated ten kilometers southeast of Fira, on the exact opposite side of the island from Perissa.

The general landscape is much similar to Perissa: an impressive long and inviting black sandy beach, characterized by an enormous rock called Mesa Vouno that rises from the sea.
The area offers a great landscape, especially at night, when the rock is lighted.
 

The village of Kamari is not built in the same manner that Perissa. The houses of the village line the beach, and offer a nice walk (volta) by the sea.

The area is more crowded and offers a bigger diversity of hotels, rooms, restaurants, snacks, cafés, bars and night clubs.

The beach of Kamari is fully organised and offers all kinds of facilities like sun chairs, umbrellas and different types of water sports.

From Kamari, a road takes you up the mountain to Ancient Thira, and a caique (traditional fishing boat) can bring you to the wild isle of Anafi.

Our Impressions

This beach and village have been built up around tourists and are quite busy. But if you can put up with this the view of Mesa Vouno makes it a good experience. The noise of planes coming into the nearby airport is not an appealing factor.
If you travel from Fira look out for the many wineries on the way. You travel through the village of Kamari on your way to the beach. There is little of note about the village which has been built up around the popular beach. It may not be pretty but does offer quite a few shops as well as cash machines. The beach itself is very long with Mesa Vouno bringing it to an abrupt end on the southern side. The view of this is superb and you can really admire its size from this beach. The beach is pretty pebbly and you can sit on these or take one of the many loungers available. The area behind the beach is very developed with numerous shops and bars.

Useful info

- Where to eat/drink: Numerous possibilities.
- Shops/Minimarket: There are a lot of shops behind the beach as well as in the nearby village.
- Telephone: There are phones at regular intervals behind the beach.
- Transportation: Bus from the Fira and quite a lot of parking space at this beach
- Beach Activities: Volcano Diving Centre is not actually on the beach but is just a short walk up a road behind it. Courses for beginners can be obtained and you can also try a caldera dive.
