What you need to know when coming climbing in Kalymnos

Kalymnos is a location every dedicated climber must visit, so here we made a summarised video showing you what you need to know when coming climbing in Kalymnos. In this video we have the pleasure to introduce two very special guests. Aris Theodoropolous, who is the writer of the Kalymnos Guidebook, he is an activist here on the island and a man, who we can say so much more about. We have also met up with Claude Idox, who is the founder of the Kalymnos Rescue Team. The two will give you a brief how to stay safe on the island. The presenting part of this video was filmed in Petra Boutique homes, we are huge fans of their accomodation and we recommend staying with them if you are going to Kalymnos!
