Mastichari is located on the north coast of the island,
20 km from Kos town, next to Marmari and relatively close to the
island's airport.
A former fishing village that has currently become one of the
most popular tourist destinations of Kos, despite having the less
developed resorts, keeping its older beauty almost intact.
The village offers attractive sandy beaches with turquoise waters that
resemble
distant exotic locations, which make them for some the most beautiful
beaches in Kos. The beaches are well organised, with various water
sports
such as windsurfing and blessed by gentle winds and amazing sunsets.
In addition to the calmness and tranquillity of the village, Mastichari
has a reputation for extremely good fish tavernas serving only freshly
caught fish. A few metres from the beach you will find some of the best.
Mastichari is also an important tourist port with ferries and hydrofoils
arriving and departing several times a day to Kalymnos and Pserimos.
