Rhodes Skala Kamirou

General information

Skala Kamirou is a small port and fishing village 50 km west of Rhodes Town. It lies on the bottom of the mountain village of Kritinia and serves as a safe shelter for fishing boats throughout the year. In the summer, excursion boats depart for the nearby island of Halki, a trip that lasts about 1 hour.

Delicious taverns serving fresh fish dot the waterfront of Skala Kamirou. Next to the port, there is a beach with small pebbles and clean water. This is a nice beach if you want to stay away from the busy crowds. Few rooms to rent can also be found in the region.

The remains of Ancient Kamiros, one of the most powerful towns of Rhodes during antiquity, can be found close to Skala. The town was founded in Prehistoric times and it was destroyed twice by an earthquake in the 2nd and the 1st century BC. Excavations started in the early 20th century and continue to this day. The site is open for the public to visit. The Medieval Castle in Kritinia is also worth a visit, as is the beautiful Kopria Beach.
