Kalantos beach lies in the southern part of Naxos. In July 2005 the road to Kalantos (from Filoti) was under construction and it was quite unpleasant to get there. However the beach is fantastic. Fine sand, wonderful sea, almost empty. It is like in the fairy tale: there's a lake nearby and throughout the day you can see the sheep drinking there.

Unfortunately the Captain hears in a report from May 2007 that a harbour is being built at the left side of this beautiful bay.

The road from Filoti has apparently been improved dramatically, only about 1 KM in the neighbourhood of the castle and maybe 2 KM near the coast are still unpaved.
The ground works of the harbour are nearly finished. A harbour will probably not be the only development, so hurry if you want to see it unspoiled.
There is a small river lake behind the beach, special vegetation, natural salt deposits and a lagoon with reeds. The last 200m of the road to the beach is surrounded by blooming bougainvilleas. From the beach one can see old grain fields that seem to end just at the sea. Splendid.

Today this is definitely still a very nice and quiet beach. Only one other (clothed) couple was there at the other side of the bay and later a group of 4 nudist men arrived and stayed for a while.

The beach is very wide, much bigger than Amiti for example which is described below as "big". It is sandy, and the sea goes smoothly deeper. No tavernas, just nature and 3 small farms up in the hills where all day long one can hear the bells of the sheep and goats that are in fields around. Just perfect.
