    About Kamari Beach

    Kamari is a long black volcanic beach on Santorini’s southeast coast, set below the steep Mesa Vouno headland. Its shore combines dark sand with fine black pebbles, and the surface can become hot in strong sun, so footwear is useful. A paved promenade runs behind the beach with cafés, restaurants, shops and bars, making Kamari one of the island’s most fully organised choices. Confirmed facilities include sunbeds, umbrellas, showers, toilets, lifeguard coverage, food, beach bars, tavernas and water sports. A large parking area is recorded, though summer demand can still affect capacity. Typical conditions are classified as calm, but the seabed can deepen and wind can change the sea state. Kamari 1 and Kamari 2 both appear on Santorini’s official 2026 Blue Flag list, supporting the page’s current certification status.


    Getting there and parking

    Kamari Beach's verified record lists a large parking lot. Live capacity, charges and opening hours are not stored, so follow local signs on arrival.

    “Park here on the map” opens the recorded coordinates. No verified nearest-town, drive-time or road, boat or hike access field is stored, so those details are omitted.

    Water and swimming

    Kamari Beach is recorded with a shoreline of sand and typically calm water. This is a typical-conditions classification, not a live forecast or safety report; wind and weather can change the sea state on the day.

    Verified activity markers include snorkeling, water sports, and family friendly. Check the water, weather and local safety guidance before entering the sea.
