Hotels of Greece
Kalymnos
Kalymnos is known as the Spongefishermen's island but more recently has become famous for being one of the best places in the world for rock-climbing and attracts thousands of young adventurers every year. The main port of Pothia is lined with cafes and as home to Greece's sponge-fishing fleet is a working town. There is a sponge museum there too. There are resort beaches around the island and several other small ports and towns worth visiting. There are small excursion boats from Pothia to the small islands of Nera and Pserimos and from the resort town of Myrties to the island of Telendos where there are rooms to rent, tavernas and beaches.
