Sun, sand, and sea turtles
Tucked away on the west coast of the Peloponnese, Kalo Nero is a charming seaside village offering sun-kissed beaches, delicious local cuisine, and a laid-back atmosphere. It’s a lesser-known gem, perfect for a relaxing escape, with the added bonus of being home to some very special wildlife.
Kick off your holiday by basking in the beauty of Kalo Nero Beach, with its golden sands stretching for miles and the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea. The beach isn’t just a spot for lounging – it's a loggerhead turtle nesting site, so if you're lucky, you might spot baby turtles hatching and making their way to the water.
After soaking up the sun, head to one of the village's cosy tavernas for a bite to eat. Whether you fancy freshly grilled seafood, traditional souvlaki, or a generous serving of Greek salad, you’ll find it all here. Kalo Nero is a foodie’s dream, where every meal feels like a celebration of Mediterranean flavours. Imagine succulent, freshly grilled seafood, tangy feta drizzled with olive oil, and plates piled high with colourful, aromatic dishes – all served with a generous helping of warm Greek hospitality.
Up for an adventure? Kalo Nero is the perfect launchpad for exploring the treasures of the Peloponnese. Just an hour’s scenic drive will take you to Ancient Olympia, the legendary birthplace of the Olympic Games, where you can walk among ruins steeped in history. Or, if you hear the call of nature, a 45-minute journey leads you to the breathtaking Neda Gorge, a hidden paradise of waterfalls and lush hiking trails.
As the sun dips towards the horizon, there's no better way to end your day than with a peaceful stroll along Kalo Nero Beach. The sunsets here are nothing short of spectacular – the sky transforms into a canvas of pink, orange, and gold, while the gentle waves sweep the shore. Pure bliss.
