Sorry don't have any personal reccomendations yet, this link
http://www.justzante.co.uk/Kalamaki.htm may be helpful. I'm going for the first time on June 22nd so will update you then

Hello from Kalamaki,
Its our last day so we hit an internet cafe to email a few people and I saw your post so might as well give you first hand info!!!

Obviously time of the year counts for a lot and we have tended to find a lot of the bars are quite souless in May. Places like Down Under, Venue and Plus Soda have hardly had people in them most nights although I am sure they are kicking during prime time season.

Good bars we have frequented are Drunk Corner (great for footie), Fire Bar and the Oasis Bar. In fairness the best bar by a country mile is the Iguana Bar on the beach road, great service, footie, movies and absolutely great beer food. Would definitely take a walk to it some nights, just down the road from the Venus Hotel.

Restaurants I would recommend, Castello (4 meals absolutely top notch pizzas), Hera, Merlis (on the old strip), Tesoro but I would personally never return to the 'world famous' Mermaids. Over priced and sloppy service.

As for now, its 26c and sunny. The weather has been fantastic and I would definitely recommend May as an alternative to those hot blistering 40c+ August days!!!

Hope this helps anyway, we are off to Cape Town tomorrow to start our round the world trip!!

Cheers or should that be Yammas!!!
