The picturesque bay of Vlychadia is located 6km south west of Pothia, the lovely capital of Kalymnos. The beach distinguishes for the crystalline waters making Vlychadia an ideal spot for a scuba diving and snorkeling experience for the rich fauna and flora and the fascinating seascape.

Vlychadia consists of sand and some trees that provide shade. There are no tourist facilities. The beach is reachable via a little road starting from the village of Vothini (south west of Pothia) and zigzagging between the mountains. There is a nice tavern and a small snack bar right on the beach.
