Kamares Port

d bollard there is, however, space for one yacht up to 14 m in length. The water depth at the quay is between 2 m (at the boat ramp) and 4 m (towards the breakwater). It gets deeper quickly behind it.

When there is a strong Meltemi wind, severe downbursts fall head-on at an angle. It can get dangerous if the anchor has no adequate hold. The harbour can get quite unpleasant during a strong westerly wind as the wind then strikes the yachts that are moored stern-to hard side-on. The safest moorings then are those at the breakwater. 

There are several taverns and bars in Kamares as well as a small supermarket. Water and electricity is available for a fee (electricity 3 euros per day, 500 l of water cost 3.50 euros). The person responsible for collecting the fees comes around every morning and every evening.
