Two soldiers of the army of Alexander the Great arrived at the area and established and ruled the two neighboring Kalamitsi villages. Alexander and Amygdalos with the control of Kalamitsi Amygdalou. This is the most common legend of how the two villages got their names.
Just after Kalamitsi Alexandrou is the historic village Kalamitsi Amygdalou. On the way to Georgioupolis we will meet the open square on the central road and the old building of the community. Here also operates the women’s cooperative which was established in 1991. It produces and sells wonderful traditional silken threads and artwork made from silk.
A few meters beforewe can turn right on a narrow alley and led to the village center with the main big church. Narrow streets, old buildings and beautiful courtyards can travel us to a more scenic and authentic era.
Kalamitsi Amygdalou is considered a rural village, located 31 km. from Chania and is situated at an altitude of 140 m. The main attractions of the village is the old fountain and the Church of St. Paul, aged 200 years. There is also the wonderful natural area with huge plane trees and the crystal natural running water where the villagers gather for events and picnics.
About 100 meters further downhill there is a shady path on our left hand side and the sign which lead us to the church of St. Eleousa (left) or to St. Paul (right). There we will find the natural spring with clear fresh water and the hidden church of Agia Eleousa. It's worth a stop to enjoy the scenery and tranquility of nature before returning to the village.
Kalamitsi Amygdalou is an ideal destination to explore the area of Apokoronas and Sfakia and to have a wonderful, calm and relaxed night at the kafeneio of the village! It is very close to big villages of Vamos, Georgioupoli and Vrisses so you can have whatever you ask for!

Sellia and Souri are tiny, very typical Cretan villages on the Apokoronou Peninsula where time has stood still, with 1 kafenio each, set next to each other on the hill between the Vrisses valley and Souda Bay.
Panoramic views of the White Mountains in the south, the sea facing east to Rethymnon, or Souda Bay in the north are possible from different areas in the villages. Lovely rural villages, yet only 6km from Vamos, and 7 kms from the beach at Georgioupolis.
Likotinarea is as small village located in Apokoronas peninsula hill.
It is located between Kefalas and Kalamitsi village with a distance about 13km from Georgioupolis and 21km from Kalives.
