Kiss Flights - Cheap flights to Kalamata

Wild untouched mountains, unexplored beaches, classical Greek cities - all hidden treasures of the Peloponnese area of Greece with Kalamata as its main gateway. The Kalamata and the Peloponnese area is the classic Greece of myths and legends; temples and palaces, Byzantine cities, Venetian citadels and the magnificent sights of Messina, Mycenae and Epidaurus. The peninsula also provides a real escape from the stresses of modern life, her natural beauty still unknown to the masses. Cypress-clad hillsides and peaceful herb-scented slopes are fringed by uncrowded sands, serene bays and crystalline blue waters. Bathed in shimmering heat taverna tables rest on the sands or under the shade of spreading village plane trees and vine trellises.

Plump black Kalamata olives are renowned across the world and are the natural staple of the Peloponnese; you'll find them everywhere from small dishes of appetisers in the village kafeneion to gift wrapped jars to take back home. Beehives on the herb-scented slopes of the Mani peninsula produce various flavours of honey and sweet Messinian figs as well as huge, sun-ripened tomatoes, aubergines, onions and peppers are also grown locally.

On the southern tip of the Messinian peninsula Finikounda enjoys steady cross shore winds that make it one of the best windsurfing spots in Greece. Just south of Kalamata on the Mani Peninsula Kardamyli is a popular starting point for hiking holidays in the Taygetos mountain range. Stone built mule paths and goat trails traverse breathtaking ravines, jagged peaks, streams, rivers and caves towards the unusual pyramidal summit of Profitis Ilias at 2410 metres where there is also a small church.

The southern Peloponnese offers some of the best cycling in Greece with magnificent mountain scenery and quiet, uncrowded roads. Terrains vary from flat coastal routes around the Bay of Messinia to the gorges and rocky passes of the Taygetos Mountains. The scenery on the Mani peninsula is exceptional; the coastline peppered with attractive sleepy villages and fortresses, towers and frescoed chapels at every turn.
