Kalamionas Beach, Shingle beach in Kassiopi, Greece.
Kalamionas Beach is a shingle beach on the northern coast of Corfu, mixing fine sand with smooth pebbles in clear Mediterranean waters. The shoreline curves gently with natural rock formations that provide shelter and define different sections of the beach.
The area served as a busy harbor for Kassiopi during Roman times, supporting maritime trade across the Mediterranean. The Romans valued this location for its natural protection and easy access to sea routes.
The beach sits near ancient Roman ruins that have shaped the local identity for centuries. People today still gather here as they have for generations, blending daily life with historical presence.
The beach has rental sun loungers, showers, and several tavernas with fresh seafood within easy walking distance. Visit during warm months from May to October when the weather is most pleasant for swimming and sunbathing.
Large rock formations underwater create natural habitats where Mediterranean fish species thrive and gather. Swimmers and snorkelers often spot colorful fish darting between the rocks and reefs.
