All the amenities you could want are provided, including water skiing, canoeing and boat hire. This pretty, pebbly beach is lapped by crystal clear water and safe for swimming.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoy wining, dining and walking off your lunch<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kalami is home to plenty of traditional Greek tavernas and restaurants, serving delicious cuisine made from local ingredients. There are beautiful coastal walks taking you past picturesque little harbours and isolated beaches, where you can walk off your lunch in the warm sunshine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit Lawrence Durrell\u2019s house<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kalami is well known as the place where Lawrence Durrell lived and his house is still preserved. Corfu\u2019s most famous English expatriate swapped noise and pollution for a quiet life on Corfu in the 1930s, and, we have to admit, the area hasn\u2019t changed much since!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Experience a Corfu festival <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you happen to be on Corfu when a festival is taking place, seize the opportunity and become acquainted with some local\u00a0heritage. The Pie Festival is an especially memorable event, where local women cook delicious pies and grilled souvlakia. Everyone gets involved in much eating, drinking and dancing.<\/p>\n<p>Every year Kalami also hosts the Vacarola Festival, when boats are decorated with lights and sail across the bay, whilst choirs sing traditional songs.<\/p>\n<p>To enjoy this island why not consider a self-catering base from which to set out and explore something new each day?
