Kalamaki Beach is a well-known and frequently visited beach in the coastal region of Alimos, Greece. Its location near Athens makes it easily reachable by public transport in about 35 minutes from the city center. The beach's distinctive feature is its small pebbly surface, which aids visitors in moving in and out of the water with ease. Moreover, the sea at Kalamaki Beach has a gradual depth, making it an ideal place for families with children.

Visitors are welcomed into both free and private sections of the beach. While the private section requires a fee for entry and additional amenities such as sun chairs, the free section provides a natural shade of trees near a fence. However, the free section lacks certain facilities such as umbrellas, showers, and toilets. Visitors are encouraged to maintain cleanliness as litter can often be found both on the beach and in the water, despite the provision of trash containers.

Kalamaki Beach is known for its popularity, often drawing crowds of visitors who enjoy activities such as swimming, volleyball, and table tennis, both during the day and at night. The beach's appeal is further enhanced by the warm sea and the beautiful views it provides, including a captivating full moon view.
