Kalami Beach, Coastal beach in Kalami, Greece
Kalami Beach is a sandy and pebbly coastal area on the northeastern shore of Corfu with clear water and Mediterranean plants and olive groves surrounding it. The beach features sun beds, changing facilities, showers, and shops within easy walking distance.
English author Lawrence Durrell lived near this beach during the 1930s and wrote his celebrated book Prospero's Cell about life on Corfu at that time. His presence helped bring literary attention to the region during that period.
Fishermen from the area bring their daily catch directly to the waterfront tavernas, keeping traditional Greek fishing practices alive as part of everyday coastal life. This routine shapes how locals and visitors experience the connection between the sea and community here.
The beach has accessibility equipment for people with disabilities and offers sun beds and shower facilities for visitor comfort. Several convenience stores and tavernas are located right along the waterfront within easy reach.
The deep pebbly seabed creates exceptional water clarity allowing visitors to see marine life several meters below the surface with ease. This natural transparency makes observing underwater life one of the main reasons people visit this location.
