The pebbly beach Myrties is considered the most beautiful beach of the island. It is located west of the island, just 8km. from Pothia. It is ideal for families with children as it has long, shallow waters. It is organized in sections. Opposite Myrties you can see Telendos (daily routes with small boats).
 

Platys Gialos is one of the most famous beaches of Kalymnos, with crystal clear waters and black sand. It is located near Panormos and offers a wonderful view of the sunset.
