There are sunbeds, umbrellas, water games such as the fun ride on the tubes that will make you whiz on the water like a formula 1 driver, or you can enjoy water skiing, and still rent a pedal boat and take a ride around the entire bay. , while for the more sporty a point where to take wakeboarding, wake surfing, wake skating and windsurfing lessons.

Given its position, the Kambos beach is quite protected from the winds, some days you will find a breeze maybe more 'pushed but it is never a big problem, indeed during the hottest days when temperatures reach even over 40 degrees it is a real blessing.

As with almost all beaches in Greece, you have two options. The first is the most comfortable and fast with your own rental vehicle which can be a car or scooter (we in Patmos recommend the scooter much easier to find parking, explore the island and stop even just for a souvenir photo as Patmos offers glimpses to be immortalized at all costs). Keeping Skala as a landmark, head north following the main road. Once in Kampos you will first find a small square, take the road to the left of the church and begin to descend for about five minutes until you reach the bay where the beach is located.

For those who prefer to move by public transport, from Skala there are public runs that lead to the village every day, the only precaution we recommend is to check the timetables well to be able to better manage your time as in depending on the season they can change.
