Episkopi Harbor at Kalamos
Exploring Lefkada Sailing Holidays area
Episkopi is the only other settlement in Kalamos besides its port, located at the Northern coast. It is very small with a tiny port, suitable only for small boats.
The whole coast has beautiful emerald green waters and a vast pine forest with tiny coves nested in it. Episkopi has few houses, used mainly as summer residences. Episkopi is only ten minutes from the port of Mytikas at the mainland coast of Aitoloakarnania.
