There you will find several beaches with crystal blue waters and warm, white sand. Passing Zipari village you see Asfendiou , a complex of picturesque villages up on the mountain, an environment warm, cosy and friendly, as all Greek villages are, anyway. And by all means, don't forget to watch the breathtaking sunset from Zia , where the sun seems to merge into the sea in a feast of colours and senses. Kardamena is a village located 30 kilometres from Kos town and 5 kilometres from "Hippocrates" International Airport. There are many interesting archaeological treasures to be seen, such as the Temple of Apollo , the early Christian Basilicas and the Ancient Theatre . And since you'll be needing some rest after sightseeing, Kardamena also offers beautiful sandy beaches with a variety of water sports and daily boat services to Nisyros, the neighbouring volcano island that you ought to visit. At summer time, at Kardamena's White Bait Festival , join locals at a tradition that promises a lot of dancing and incredible fun! Moving on to Antimachia , a village 25 kilometres outside Kos town towards the central part of the island, you'll see the Castle of Antimachia, the Windmill and the Traditional House museum , all of great interest. This village, carrying the same name for thirty centuries, also carries on several traditions, one of them being what else, a festival: the Honey Festival . Numerous family beekeeping businesses have made Antimachia famous for its delicious and extremely nutritious honey, something you'll see for yourself, at the Festival! Approximately 3 kilometres northwest of Antimachia lies the village of Mastichari , where one can find some of the most beautiful beaches on Kos. The port is always full with fishermen that provide daily the local tavernas with fresh fish. And guess what: Another festival, the Mastichari Wine Festival , where you should go if you love home made wine, local delicacies and Greek music. Mastichari is also your gate to the neighbouring island of Kalymnos, since daily cruises are available from the port of the village. On the western edge of the island, 42 kilometres from Kos town, you'll find the picturesque village that lies above the bay of Kamari, Kefalos and below that the islet of Saint Nicholas (Kastri). There are quite a few sites to be seen in Kefalos, such as the Basilica of Saint Stephanos , the monastery of St. John the Theologian , the ruins of Astipalea and the cave Aspri Petra . An event not to miss: the Ouzo Festival , a tribute to Greece's national aperitif, another opportunity to dance until dawn and have a real great time!
