Zante - Ep 3 - Kalamaki - Crystal Beach Road & Kalamaki Beach

In the 3rd episode, we continue our walking tour of Kalamaki, however, this time we take you down Kalamaki's Crystal Beach Road towards the beach. This was the old main strip of Kalamaki before it expanded with tourism and the main strip was born..
We show you the bars, restaurants and accommodation on Crystal Beach Road.
From here, we take a walk along Kalamaki's long stretch of beach stopping for the odd refreshment along the way.
We finish off by taking you up a cut form the beach back towards Kalamaki's main strip, finishing off with a relaxed afternoon at Iguana Cocktail Bar.

    If you are bringing the kids then definitely get yourself along to The Little Farm Laganas way. It's a little petting zoo and the animals are all used to being with humans. We actually did a video on that place too. There's another water park but not too sure if it would be open so early in the season. Take the bus or taxi I to Zante Town if you want a change of scenery and the beach in Kalamaki is definitely worth a visit.
