The Greek island Kalymnos Presented by Alessandro Sorbello Productions http://www.alessandrosorbello.com Kalymnos, is best known as the island of some of the world's finest sponge divers. The sea has always been a focal element of local life, which has preserved its traditional character colour and style to a great extent. Its picturesque landscapes, its clear blue seas and the hospitality of the locals are just a small sample of what the island generously offers its visitors. Situated between Kos and Leros rises the fourth largest island in the Dodecanese; Kalymnos! Kalymnos is surrounded by other smaller Greek Islands, (islets) however, only Pserimos and Telendos are inhabited.

Kalymnos adorns the Northern part of Dodecanese islands with it's mountainous landscape that attracts rock and mountain climbers from the furthest corners of the globe. One can find a great variety of herbs such as thyme, sage and oregano, while exploring the Kalymnian slopes. The above mentioned herbs are also vital ingredients for the production of the famous Kalymnian honey. Part of Accommodation Greek Islands http://www.accommodationgreekislands.com
