Lampi Holidays

Holidays in Lampi are centred round its magnificent sandy beach. The kilometre-long stretch of fine white sand is considered by many to be the best on the island. The beach is dotted with sun beds and umbrellas and also features a wealth of water sports, including windsurfing, parasailing, snorkelling and jet skiing. Lampi Beach attracts tourists staying in Kos Town, due to its quieter shores, but as a result it is becoming increasingly busy.

Located just a mile from Kos Town, holidays in Lampi benefit from the capital's regular bus routes, which link all corners of the island. Visitors can cycle or even walk to Kos Town where they can explore the cobbled streets, relax over coffees in the picturesque squares, and browse the small shops selling souvenirs, local handicrafts, and jewellery, as well as a selection of stylish boutiques specialising in expensive fashions.

Nearby excursions to Lampi include trips to the Byzantine fortress at Pili, the 14th-century Castle of the Knights in Kos Town, boat trips to the islands of Pserimos, Plata and Kalymnos, and exploring the traditional hillside village of Kefalos. Evenings in Lampi offer a selection of bars and traditional Greek tavernas, which line the beach. Those seeking all-night drinking and dancing can head to Kos Town, with its wider choice of restaurants and tavernas, as well as lively bars, discos and nightclubs.
