A live organism that is found at the bottom of the sea has made this island known all over the world. But when you have the chance to meet this island closely you will realize the sponges of Kalymnos are only the beginning.

History has played a very decisive role for Kalymnos. During the years that have gone by, the island has suffered many attacks from invaders, last of which were the Turks and the Italians.

The imposing port of Kalymnos, excellently constructed, consists of one of the most important landmarks of Greece. Here is where the beautiful Cruise ships but also the private yachts, transport visitors to the island of the sponge divers.
