Kardamena is the second largest town on the Greek island of Kos and a popular beach resort that combines guaranteed sunshine, an endless sandy beach, and a lively nightlife into an attractive overall package. The former fishing village on the southern coast of the island has developed into the main holiday destination next to Kos Town, offering a perfect mix of beach holiday, water sports, and Greek hospitality, without losing the personal atmosphere of a small coastal community.

The beach of Kardamena stretches for several kilometers of golden sand along the southern coast and gently slopes into the warm, clear water. The sheltered location on the south side of the island ensures calm seas and minimal wind - a contrast to the windy northern coast, making Kardamena particularly popular with families with small children. Numerous sections are organized with sunbeds and umbrellas, while natural spots invite exploration in between.

The center of Kardamena thrives on its relaxed holiday atmosphere. During the day, visitors stroll along the promenade, enjoy Freddo Cappuccino in the cafes, and shop in the small boutiques. In the evening, Bar Street transforms into a lively nightlife area with cocktail bars, music, and an international crowd. The party scene is vibrant but smaller and more family-oriented than in Faliraki on Rhodes or Malia on Crete.

From Kardamena, boats depart for the volcanic island of Nisyros, one of the most spectacular day trips in the Dodecanese. The still-active volcano with its bubbling crater, the abandoned villages, and the colors of the landscape - sulfur yellow, volcanic black, and Mediterranean green - make the visit unforgettable. The ancient fortress of Antimacheia and the mountain village of Zia with its sunsets over the Aegean Sea are also popular excursion destinations. From Germany, flights to Kos take about three hours, and the transfer to Kardamena takes only 15 minutes.
